It does a smart search through your menu's to also get the right (or best matching) Itemid. That means that your menus and modules will be placed correctly.

Very simple to install and use and a big time saver too.

This is a must have for any site.

As the author says it's a small thing but it is worth SO much. Thank you for this little gem.
When you are using SEF urls it can be frustrating finding the right URL for articles and stuff - especially when you have to make a menu item just to get a URL. This thing is going on my must have list. I only wish there was a similar solution for my old 1.0.x site.

A simple administrator plugin that does a job that should be in the core and helps the intuitive user work with joomla 1.5. Great work.

This is a must-install on all my sites. I know that there is much discussion about what should be 'core' functionality, but since there is already a preview in Joomla and this is much better then... well... we can always hope. The author has some other excellent extensions too... check them out.

Just released new version (1.1.0). Now you can see by the icons color if the link is changed to anything but the main site.

Yeah, it's just a small plugin, but saves a lot of time. Especially when you are using SEF urls. It was pretty hard finding the right url for articles and stuff. That's history now!

Does what it says it will--modifies the preview button to whatever you're looking at in the control panel. Works with content and menus.
Owner's reply
It works on other components too. But only if there it is used in one of the menu's.
