Lightning Autofill BETA v13.12.5 released

The main highlights in this release:

  1. Lightning Autofill’s internal CSS selector generator was rewritten to be up to 300x faster. We’re not kidding — check out the benchmarks. The previous version of our CSS selector generator was called getUniqueSelector() and the new version is genUniqueSelector7(). All the other functions are from third-party libraries, which either produced overly long CSS selectors or were too slow. You can see how much faster it is by generating rules on Google Forms with the “Parse labels” option disabled. CSS selectors are generated for the Name column as a fallback whenever fields have no unique attribute values. If a concise CSS selector is not found either, then an XPath is generated as a last resort.
  2. Fixed a number of cloud sync issues. For those who have “Bi-directional sync” enabled, the syncing should be a lot more reliable now.
  3. Updated the rules generator to work with the latest Microsoft Forms HTML code. Lightning Autofill should now be able to generate rules for Microsoft Forms regardless of whether you have the “Parse labels” option enabled. NOTE: The “Parse labels” option is required for Google Forms with shuffled questions.
