On the other hand, sometimes it's better to rename queued items before starting downloading them.

This can be done either individually using the edit button associated with every item from download list or in batch mode using the multi-rename dialog Question 6. I want to download some files from the resource list but I don't like the filenames used there. On the original web page, they had other, better names. How to change that? But if the user clicks the name header of the resources table, he will be able to choose another attribute url, title, text, alt text for the actual displaying.

The most obvious candidate is the text attribute; that usually corresponds to what the user sees on the web page. Sending to the queue will preserve this displayed mask. But once the items are added to the queue not for immediate downloading , it's possible to rename them in more advanced ways. You can select some items and use the available multi-rename dialog for batch renaming them.

Here you can set a common name mask using many types of available masks, and combine them in various ways. Your extension is not capable to download embedded videos. Answer My extension is, indeed, not designed to download embedded videos or streaming media but only normal, direct links. The main reason is that these extensions are most exposed to all sorts of legal issues and I don't want my extension to be taken down.

Though, in the future, it's possible to add some more support for these types. Question 8. Your extension is not capable to download files from sites X, Y, Z Answer My extension tries always to detect links that are included in the html source of the web pages. But sometimes this doesn't work well. Many sites don't really like their resources to be mass downloaded because this way the users skip the associated ads.

So, in some cases, the URLs are embedded in nonstandard ways or, even worse, the resources are visible on the page as "fake" links, meaning that the real URLs of the resources are generated by the server on the fly, only when the user clicks their name.

One solution to this problem is to use an appropriate userscript designed specifically for the site X. There are some very popular userscript managers around, for example Greasemonkey on Firefox or Tampermonkey on Chrome.

If the user knew some javascript he may be able to build for site X a special userscript which facilitates subsequent downloading using Simple Mass Downloader extension.

More precisely, my extension can recognize the special attributes data-smd-url and data-smd-name and use them for mass downloading.

Of course, the main problem here is to build the helper userscript. This implies that the knowledgeable user manually analyze the source of the page, and build de appropriate userscript with the aim of embedding into the page via this special attributes the information required for download.

Another solution is to find eventually another extension designed specifically for the site X. There are many extensions of this type. For example one for Google Images downloading, other for SoundCloud etc. There are great chances to find such an extension if the site X is really a very popular one.
