Charles Meyerson (ID: 000000d40aef0c41) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/09/2023 Love this. Have used it for years, but only recently has it stopped smartening quotes as I type ’em. (I have to manually invoke the extension.) Wondering what’s changed and whether there’s a way to restore “live” smartening.

Andrew P. (ID: 000000cfa6cccbfe) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/02/2022 This would be great... but it doesn't seem to be working! I think that Blogger must no longer support this extension, since when I click on the icon, nothing changes.

Russ Campbell (ID: 000000513ae9cf72) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/15/2021 Does not seem to work on Google's Blogger editor, so what's the point of offering it?

John Bainbridge (ID: 000000b6df8aeb67) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 08/09/2020 This is great but it's soon not going to be! I'm finding that it only works on my "Legacy" version of Google's Blogger. On the updated version this extension is not working. ARE THERE PLANS TO UPDATE THIS FEATURE FOR THE NEW BLOGGER INTERFACE?
