    There have been several requests for that but I don’t plan on doing it. The reason is that the URL has to be checked on every page load. Using regex matching would significantly slow a site down, which is the opposite of this plugins purpose.

    Ok, that’s quite understandable. However, would you consider streamlining the URL entry process?

    Maybe use the regex just to make it easier on users to enter URLs, then expand the regex into the full URL’s before adding them to the db.
    Maybe just reduce the number of clicks required to enter a URL. After I enter a URL, I have to click twice to get back the the URL input text box. How about present the text box in the screen that says “URL successfully added to the database.”?

    If I could enter https://www.domain.com/[ja,pt,th]/path/to/page and Plugin organizer entered all three URLs into the DB with the setting I check, that would be seriously helpful.

    Thanks,
