What's New in Copy Link to Pasteboard

3.0.2

March 31, 2026

- Fixed an issue where copying did not work on iPad

User reviews

Overrated

Would be so much better if could copy anchor text without having to go through multiple steps.

Doesn't Work Properly

Unfortunately, you need to use the copy command twice before it will erase the previous copy. This is VERY cumbersome. Please fix this otherwise useful extension as there is no alternative.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback and patience. We’re happy to let you know that this issue has been fixed in the latest update. We appreciate you taking the time to report this.

The extension I have longed for

This extension elegently captures the functionality I have been looking for. It allows you to copy both the URL and the title of a website into one string in various formats.

A future improvement could be to be able to right click on a link and capture the URL and title of the linking website.

Great work!

Good to see it on Safari, but it is incomplete

It's good to see on Safari what I can get on Firefox, Chrome, and Opera: a copy-link-text extension that can then format the link's URL and text.

I use it all the time, and I wouldn't want to use a browser where I could not do that. So it's a good addition to Safari.

I find it incomplete, however. It lacks:
* BBCode formatting
* MediaWiki formatting
* Some way of editing the formatting

BBCode is what a lot of messageboard software uses, like phpBB, Simple Machines, vBulletin, and XenForo.

MediaWiki is what Wikipedia and a lot of other wikis use.

1回では正常に動作しない

1回目の操作では何もない文字列がクリップボードにコピーされる。すなわち,Markdownの場合は[]()のみ。同じ操作を2回するとはじめて正しくコピーされる。このバグが修正されれば使いやすくなりそう。

Response from developer

ご不便をおかけして申し訳ございません。最新版では修正しておりますので引き続きご利用いただけますと幸いです。
