Sugiii Clmnt (ID: 00000032a145f2b3) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 02/25/2023 Nul, ne remplit pas ses fonctions. La seule chose que l'extension sait faire c'est : au clic, ouvrir un nouvel onglet de création d'évènement avec en description l'URL de la page initialement visitée. Mais elle ne prend même pas en compte les dates, heures et infos de l'event

Lissette Avila (ID: 0000005bae870925) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/29/2022 This extension no longer works. It will open a new tag that direct you to add an event to your calendar but it will not populate that data from the selected text.
