Is there any additional step to be configured ? It worked for me after restart. It worked right away. Good plugin.

Alex He (ID: 000000d8a7110028) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/05/2017 The overview is derelict, for people who want to use this extension. 1. update relay to 1.40 or later 2. open a new tab to get the changes of tag for relay.

Sara Bee (ID: 0000009168025636) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 09/27/2017 I would really like to use this extension, however I cannot get it to work. Documentation/source code is scarce to non-existent... you'd hope this means it works out of the box, but I guess not. :(
