VisualizaçõesInserting an element after another with .after() does not fully work
In a webpage (from remote server where I have no access) I want to insert the page URL after a certain element, and after the webpage loads.
My solution is posted in the snippet below
var address = document.URL;
var pane = document.getElementsByClassName("heading--large")[0];
pane.after("<a href=\"" + address + "\">" + address + "</a>");
The page's URL is inserted, but only as text, not as a recognized element.
The URL is NOT active like the other links. Take a look at the snapshot I uploaded.
Why is the text in my anchor-element not rendering blue? Furthermore the "href" is not highlighted red like the other anchor elements are below.
Is ".after()" not the suitable function?

In your code, you are inserting a string after the pane node as the Element.after documentation shows. If you want to use after, modify your code with document.createElement and modify the resulting elements to mirror your original intent
var address =
"https://www.ghacks.net/2021/10/02/which-are-the-best-screenshot-extensions-for-chrome/";
var pane = document.getElementsByClassName("heading--large")[0];
var myLink = document.createElement("a");
myLink.href = address;
myLink.textContent = address;
pane.after(myLink);<main class="post-list mt--60 mt--first--0">
<h1 class="heading--large" style="color:#43414e;font-weight:400;"> Which are the best screenshot extensions for Chrome? </h1>

.after() places nodes after a given element. A node is many things, but there's two types of nodes we usually are concerned with are elements and text. Your requirements are:
Create an
<a>Add
hrefattribute with a pre-determined value to<a>*Add pre-determined text content to
<a>*Place
<a>after.heading--large**#2, #3, and #4 can be in any order
.after() can only do #4, so here's a possibility if you really want to use .after():
const A = document.createElement('a')A.href = addressA.textContent = addresspane.after(A)
const address = document.URL;
// This a modern equivalent
const pane = document.querySelector(".heading--large");
/*
This will safely render htmlString at a specfic location in relation to a given element.
*/
pane.insertAdjacentHTML("afterEnd", `<a href="${address}">${address}</a>`);
// Check to see if it's correct with .outerHTML property
console.log(document.querySelector("header").outerHTML);<header>
<h1 class='heading--large'>Chrome Extensions</h1>
</header>
