From a link to a useful draft
Paste the public page for a film, place, product, recipe, book or another idea. VIOTray can suggest details from that page. Review the draft before saving it to your collection.
The preview does not save a wish automatically. Choose to open the draft and create the card when you are ready.
A site does not need a dedicated integration
Public HTML pages may expose a title, description and image through standard metadata. Supported sources can also provide category-specific details. Availability depends on what the page returns.
What you may be able to import
| Category | Possible details | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Films | Title, year, format and running time | The correct version |
| Places | Name, address and coordinates | The exact branch and pin |
| Shopping and gifts | Title, image, price and currency | The selected size, colour and seller |
| Recipes | Ingredients, portions and instructions | Quantities and dietary needs |
| Books and learning | Author, format or course information | Edition, language and level |
Missing information is not filled in by guesswork. Add it yourself when the source does not provide it.
Save from an open page with the browser extension
The VIOTray extension for Chromium browsers can help capture information from a page you already have open. Review the captured draft before creating the wish.
- On a computer, open Chrome Web Store, select Add to Chrome and confirm installation. Reload your VIOTray tab and pin the extension icon in your browser.
- Open a film, place or product page and press the VIOTray icon.
- Review the captured details, select Open draft and save the wish in VIOTray.
Chrome Web Store handles installation and published updates. If you use your own server, change its address in the extension settings.
Use the extension when content is rendered in the browser or the website limits server-side extraction. It cannot guarantee access to every private or restricted page.
Video walkthrough: save a film and a place
Watch how to add a film using the extension icon and a place using the prompt on the map page, review the draft and save the card in VIOTray. The video has no audio.
Choose a specific public page
- A film or series page rather than search results.
- A product page rather than a cart or checkout.
- A particular place rather than a map search.
- A recipe, book, course or article rather than an account homepage.
A supported source does not guarantee every field on every page. The page structure and the information it exposes still matter.
Why a draft may be incomplete
Login screens, CAPTCHA, dynamic content and source restrictions can prevent extraction. Try the browser extension or create the card manually. Do not include passwords, session tokens or private access links in a wish.
Choose where the idea belongs
Check the category, add a note and decide whether the wish belongs in your personal collection or a group. Saving a link does not automatically invite anyone or schedule a plan.
