Welcome, @hedgehoggaming !

That happens to be one of my extensions. 🙂

To import extensions from GitHub, select **Extensions** in the toolbox.

In the search box at the top of the screen, copy-and-paste the URL of the GitHub repository for the extension. In this case, the URL that you linked in your message will work fine. Click the search icon or press **Enter** on your keyboard, and then select the extension’s card that appears.
