+
+### Definition of Hosting

+
+## 2. License Fees
+Licensee agrees to pay Licensor the license fees specified in the ordering document. License fees are due and payable as specified in the ordering document.

+This Agreement shall commence on the effective date and continue for the period set forth in the ordering document unless terminated earlier in accordance with this Agreement. Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other party breaches any material term and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice.
+
+## 8. Limitation of Liability and Disclaimer of Warranty
+Executing this commercial license does not waive the Limitation of Liability or Disclaimer of Warranty as stated in the open-source LICENSE provided with the Software. The Software is provided "as is," without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and noninfringement.

+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain

+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:

+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
+

+
+### Conditional web page changes
+
+Easily [configure conditional actions](https://changedetection.io/tutorial/conditional-actions-web-page-changes), for example, only trigger when a price is above or below a preset amount, or [when a web page includes (or does not include) a keyword](https://changedetection.io/tutorial/how-monitor-keywords-any-website)

+
+### Schedule web page watches in any timezone, limit by day of week and time.
+
+Easily set a re-check schedule, for example you could limit the web page change detection to only operate during business hours.
+Or perhaps based on a foreign timezone (for example, you want to check for the latest news-headlines in a foreign country at 0900 AM),
+
+<img src="./docs/scheduler.png" style="max-width:80%;" alt="How to monitor web page changes according to a schedule"  title="How to monitor web page changes according to a schedule"  />
+
+Includes quick short-cut buttons to setup a schedule for **business hours only**, or **weekends**.
+
+### We have a Chrome extension!
+
+Easily add the current web page to your changedetection.io tool, simply install the extension and click "Sync" to connect it to your existing changedetection.io install.
+
+[<img src="./docs/chrome-extension-screenshot.png" style="max-width:80%;" alt="Chrome Extension to easily add the current web-page to detect a change."  title="Chrome Extension to easily add the current web-page to detect a change."  />](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/changedetectionio-website/kefcfmgmlhmankjmnbijimhofdjekbop)
+

-### Future plans
+## Filters
 
-- Greater configuration of check interval times, page request headers.
-- ~~General options for timeout, default headers~~
-- On change detection, callout to another API (handy for notices/issue trackers)
-- ~~Explore the differences that were detected~~ 
-- Add more options to explore versions of differences
-- Use a graphic/rendered page difference instead of text (see the experimental `selenium-screenshot-diff` branch)
+XPath(1.0), JSONPath, jq, and CSS support comes baked in! You can be as specific as you need, use XPath exported from various XPath element query creation tools. 
+(We support LXML `re:test`, `re:match` and `re:replace`.)
 
+## Notifications
+
+ChangeDetection.io supports a massive amount of notifications (including email, office365, custom APIs, etc) when a web-page has a change detected thanks to the <a href="https://github.com/caronc/apprise">apprise</a> library.
+Simply set one or more notification URL's in the _[edit]_ tab of that watch.
+
+Just some examples
+
+    discord://webhook_id/webhook_token
+    flock://app_token/g:channel_id
+    gitter://token/room
+    gchat://workspace/key/token
+    msteams://TokenA/TokenB/TokenC/
+    o365://TenantID:AccountEmail/ClientID/ClientSecret/TargetEmail
+    rocket://user:password@hostname/#Channel
+    mailto://user:pass@example.com?to=receivingAddress@example.com
+    json://someserver.com/custom-api
+    syslog://
  
-Please :star: star :star: this project and help it grow! https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/
+<a href="https://github.com/caronc/apprise#popular-notification-services">And everything else in this list!</a>
+
+<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/master/docs/screenshot-notifications.png" style="max-width:100%;" alt="Self-hosted web page change monitoring notifications"  title="Self-hosted web page change monitoring notifications"  />
+
+Now you can also customise your notification content and use <a target="_new" href="https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/templates/">Jinja2 templating</a> for their title and body!
+
+## JSON API Monitoring
+
+Detect changes and monitor data in JSON API's by using either JSONPath or jq to filter, parse, and restructure JSON as needed.
+
+![image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/master/docs/json-filter-field-example.png)
+
+This will re-parse the JSON and apply formatting to the text, making it super easy to monitor and detect changes in JSON API results
+
+![image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/master/docs/json-diff-example.png)
+
+### JSONPath or jq?
+
+For more complex parsing, filtering, and modifying of JSON data, jq is recommended due to the built-in operators and functions. Refer to the [documentation](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/manual/) for more specific information on jq.
+
+One big advantage of `jq` is that you can use logic in your JSON filter, such as filters to only show items that have a value greater than/less than etc.
+
+See the wiki https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/wiki/JSON-Selector-Filter-help for more information and examples
+
+### Parse JSON embedded in HTML!
+
+When you enable a `json:` or `jq:` filter, you can even automatically extract and parse embedded JSON inside a HTML page! Amazingly handy for sites that build content based on JSON, such as many e-commerce websites. 
+
+```
+<html>
+...
+<script type="application/ld+json">
+
+{
+   "@context":"http://schema.org/",
+   "@type":"Product",
+   "offers":{
+      "@type":"Offer",
+      "availability":"http://schema.org/InStock",
+      "price":"3949.99",
+      "priceCurrency":"USD",
+      "url":"https://www.newegg.com/p/3D5-000D-001T1"
+   },
+   "description":"Cobratype King Cobra Hero Desktop Gaming PC",
+   "name":"Cobratype King Cobra Hero Desktop Gaming PC",
+   "sku":"3D5-000D-001T1",
+   "itemCondition":"NewCondition"
+}
+</script>
+```  
+
+`json:$..price` or `jq:..price` would give `3949.99`, or you can extract the whole structure (use a JSONpath test website to validate with)
+
+The application also supports notifying you that it can follow this information automatically
+
+
+## Proxy Configuration
+
+See the wiki https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/wiki/Proxy-configuration , we also support using [Bright Data proxy services where possible](https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/wiki/Proxy-configuration#brightdata-proxy-support) and [Oxylabs](https://oxylabs.go2cloud.org/SH2d) proxy services.
+
+## Raspberry Pi support?
+
+Raspberry Pi and linux/arm/v6 linux/arm/v7 arm64 devices are supported! See the wiki for [details](https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/wiki/Fetching-pages-with-WebDriver)
+
+## Import support
+
+Easily [import your list of websites to watch for changes in Excel .xslx file format](https://changedetection.io/tutorial/how-import-your-website-change-detection-lists-excel), or paste in lists of website URLs as plaintext. 
+
+Excel import is recommended - that way you can better organise tags/groups of websites and other features.
+
+
+## API Support

+# Creating Plugins for changedetection.io
+
+This document describes how to create plugins for changedetection.io. Plugins can be used to extend the functionality of the application in various ways.
+
+## Plugin Types
+
+### UI Stats Tab Plugins
+
+These plugins can add content to the Stats tab in the Edit page. This is useful for adding custom statistics or visualizations about a watch.
+
+#### Creating a UI Stats Tab Plugin
+
+1. Create a Python file in a directory that will be loaded by the plugin system.
+
+2. Use the `global_hookimpl` decorator to implement the `ui_edit_stats_extras` hook:
+
+```python
+import pluggy
+from loguru import logger
+
+global_hookimpl = pluggy.HookimplMarker("changedetectionio")
+
+@global_hookimpl
+def ui_edit_stats_extras(watch):

+
+## Plugin Loading
+
+Plugins can be loaded from:
+
+1. Built-in plugin directories in the codebase
+2. External packages using setuptools entry points
+
+To add a new plugin directory, modify the `plugin_dirs` dictionary in `pluggy_interface.py`.
+
+## Example Plugin
+
+Here's a simple example of a plugin that adds a word count statistic to the Stats tab:
+
+```python
+import pluggy
+from loguru import logger
+
+global_hookimpl = pluggy.HookimplMarker("changedetectionio")
+
+def count_words_in_history(watch):
+    """Count words in the latest snapshot"""
+    try:
+        if not watch.history.keys():
+            return 0
+            
+        latest_key = list(watch.history.keys())[-1]
+        latest_content = watch.get_history_snapshot(latest_key)
+        return len(latest_content.split())
+    except Exception as e:
+        logger.error(f"Error counting words: {str(e)}")
+        return 0
+
+@global_hookimpl
+def ui_edit_stats_extras(watch):
+    """Add word count to the Stats tab"""
+    word_count = count_words_in_history(watch)
+    
+    html = f"""
+    <div class="word-count-stats">
+        <h4>Content Analysis</h4>
+        <table class="pure-table">
+            <tbody>
+                <tr>
+                    <td>Word count (latest snapshot)</td>
+                    <td>{word_count}</td>
+                </tr>
+            </tbody>
+        </table>
+    </div>
+    """
+    return html
+```
+
+## Testing Your Plugin
+
+1. Place your plugin in one of the directories scanned by the plugin system
+2. Restart changedetection.io
+3. Go to the Edit page of a watch and check the Stats tab to see your content
