Summary

*** Attention: This extension is not maintained anymore. ***

(But contributions are still welcome! https://github.com/edjroot/webext-save-to-folder)

But don't be sad! There's an awesome extension that does the same and much more! Go check it out: https://github.com/gyng/save-in/

Whatever you read below may have out-of-date info since the time I wrote this.

NOTE: For security reasons, Firefox doesn't allow extensions to do certain things, such as choosing arbitrary download locations or disabling the "save as" dialog. But you can do it! I believe in you! Just read on.

How to use, step-by-step:

  1. In the extension's settings page, set up a list of folders. These will appear on your context menu so you can download stuff directly to them. 2... Uhh, that's it.
