Changelog — Rewritr

v1.1.0

April 2025

Latest

This release adds three highly-requested features: saved rule sets, a proper contenteditable-only mode, and a global keyboard shortcut.

New Bookmark panel — save, name, load, and delete rule sets from the 🔖 button in the header.
New "Replace only in contenteditable" toggle — when on, Rewritr exclusively targets editable fields (Google Docs, Notion, email composers) and leaves static page text untouched.
New Keyboard shortcut Alt+Shift+F to open the popup from any tab.
Fix Previous "Replace in contenteditable" toggle was additive (not exclusive) — it was replacing text everywhere instead of only in editable areas. Now correctly restricts scope when toggled on.
Imp Bookmarks are included in Import/Export JSON.
Imp Dynamic mode MutationObserver now also respects the contenteditable-only restriction.
Imp Migrates older skipRich storage key to the new replaceRich flag automatically.

v1.0.0

March 2025

Rewritr launches as a free Chrome extension for find-and-replace on any webpage.

New Unlimited find-and-replace rules per session.
New Four per-rule flags: Case Sensitive (Cs), Regex (Rx), Whole Word (Ww), Smart Case (Sc).
New Unicode-aware regex with capture group support ($1, $2, $0).
New Unicode word boundary matching using \p{L} / \p{N} (works correctly for non-ASCII scripts).
New Smart case — mirrors capitalisation pattern of matched text onto replacement.
New Dynamic mode — MutationObserver keeps replacements active as new content loads.
New Skip <pre> and <code> tag options.
New Works inside contenteditable, input[type=text], and textarea elements.
New Import and Export rules as JSON.
New Rules persist across sessions via chrome.storage.sync.
