Doesn't work. completely BROKEN.
This does not properly take into account pages that have multiple selectable product variations. It only creates a link based off of the URL in the address bar, which does not always match the product as currently configured on the page.
This could output even shorter URLs. Did you know you can turn this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ME7CV7C/ Into this: https://amzn.com/B00ME7CV7C
Very useful tool. Thanks for building it. One feature request: Please keep the https part of the URL. Right now, you're deleting the s and converting it to an insecure http URL. So your links are actually causing a redirect to the https URL, since Amazon switched to https a long time ago. In fact, they set the Strict Transport Security header in their HTTP headers. In any case, everything before // should be left alone. That way you'll keep https sites as they are.
I love the options on this. I hate that I have to right click on the page. Let me set the defaults and just click a button. :The modify URL on address bar" option does not seem to be working for me. Perhaps I am misunderstanding the meaning of that option.
Exactly what I needed. I maintain a Google Spreadsheet of "things to buy" with my wife, and it's annoying to manually shorten the inevitably long URLs each time before copying. The only suggestion I'd have would be an icon that pops up in the URL bar that will reload the page with the shortened URL when clicked.
