WordPress 4.9 removed the bookmarklet functionality of “Press This“. That caused a lot of frustration and anger and fuzz. That’s where the horror started for the “Press This” addicts.
A few details on bookmarklets:
Some personal notes on using “Press This“:
- Quite some of my blog articles are actually annotated bookmarks with a few web links.
- Those articles get started, when I come across an article or a website and I think, I should be able to locate it again easily.
- That’s where a service like “Press This” comes into the again.
- With minimal UI interaction …
- … I am able to capture the relevant details of the web page I am currently reading within my browser
- … and I am able to use those captured details to create an article on my blog.
