Downloads by Site - keeps Chrome downloads from turning into one giant anonymous pile.

Instead of every file landing in Downloads, it suggests organized folders based on where the file came from:

🔶 Etsy/

🔶 GitHub/

🔶 Pinterest/

🔶 Gmail/

For Etsy downloads, it can also add shop folders like:

🔶 Etsy/CraftyArtCafe.shop/

If you want site folders to stand out visually from normal downloaded folders, you can enable a custom Unicode site prefix such as:

(Sorry only 1 prefix character, choose well.)

🔶 Etsy/

...

The important extra is source-link files.

Downloads by Site can save a small .webloc or .url source link next to the downloaded files, so you dont have to remember where every download came from. That is especially useful for Etsy research, image collecting, design references, PDFs, receipts, pattern files, and anything else that makes sense only when you know the page it came from.

Highlights

- Automatically routes Chrome downloads by source site

- Optional date folders for calmer long-term organization

- Optional Etsy shop folders with .shop suffix

- Custom Unicode site marker, default 🔶

- Source-link files so you dont have to remember where every download came from

- Works locally in Chrome

- Designed for people who collect, compare, research, download, and come back later

Good For

Etsy shoppers, sellers, digital crafters, data hoarders, researchers, designers, makers, teachers, archivists,

and anyone whose Downloads folder has become a junk drawer.

Launch Comment

I built Downloads by Site because downloaded files lose context fast.

A filename alone rarely tells you which listing, shop, repo, product page, or reference page it came from.

This extension keeps that context close by routing files into source-site folders and, when enabled, saving a source-link file alongside them.

It is a small workflow improvement,

but it removes a surprising amount of later guessing.
