- Rated 4 out of 5by Adrian, 8 years agoGreat extension, i used it to redirect www.reddit.com into i.reddit.com (Reddit is blocked on my country). The only minor problem for this extension is the logo colour, it has exactly the same colour as the new "Quantum" dark theme. Would be nice if you could add an outline on the logo :)
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13597283, 8 years agoThis was exactly what I needed. It works as expected with a nice UI and UX. Just one thing would make it even better: the ability to clone a redirect. As it is, I need to export, copy-paste-edit and re-import. Not hard, but it would be cool to do it all within the app. Thanks for this useful tool!

- Rated 5 out of 5by psychonaut25, 8 years agoThis add-on isn't compatible with Pale Moon Browser, which does not support WebExtensions. I would really love to use this add-on, but unless Pale Moon compatibility is added, I can't use it. If Pale Moon compatibility is ever added, I will change my review to five stars.
Edit: The developer very kindly helped me find an older version that works, and it's an excellent extension! Does exactly what it says it does and it's fairly versatile with its capabilities. Definitely earns the 5 stars. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13528321, 8 years agoDid this break in 57? I'm trying to create a rule for redirecting amazon.com to smile.amazon.com but I can't get it to work. I've had rules work in the past for http -> https which aren't working anymore either.

- Rated 5 out of 5by joecell, 8 years agoI used this extension to automatically redirect classroom.google.com to classroom.google.com/u/2/h/ which is my school gmail account. Until now I had to laboriously either type in the correct URL, or use Google's menu. This method is a lot simpler and efficient.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Kawzen, 8 years agoupdate: I was able to turn off logging by editing the extension and resign it, I'm using it again now and it's working great

- Rated 5 out of 5by IAO, 8 years agoWorks every time. Saves a lot of my time and effort. Thanks for offering this powerful and handy tool.
No need to block site anymore, just forward it! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12343667, 8 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Llewen, 8 years agoIt works, but it doesn't rewrite link urls. You either have to open them in a new tab, or copy and paste the url into the address bar. At least that's how it worked on the broken website I was trying to fix.
I see my issue is discussed below. Added two stars... - Rated 5 out of 5by CMTSIJ, 8 years agoI use it to redirect https://www.facebook.com/ to https://www.facebook.com/?sk=h_chr.
Everything works perfect.
Thank you. Developer response
posted 8 years agoYeah, sorry about that. Debug feature that got left in. Will remove in next version.- Rated 5 out of 5by MS-DOS, 8 years agoWorks fine, but doesn't redirect some links at all until the page loaded from that not-redirected link is manually refreshed.

posted 8 years agoI'm kind of at the mercy of the webRequest API that Firefox provides there. I redirect every request they pass to me, but don't really know why they wouldn't pass the requests you're mentioning to the extension. - Rated 5 out of 5by Jacob Mischka, 8 years agoNot sure why it seems like so many people are complaining.
Would be great if there were a way to automatically sync the configurations between firefox installs, but import/export works fine.
Thanks!Developer response
posted 8 years agoThanks, I'm glad you like the extension. Sync would be cool, but I'm not really working much on this anymore. Would welcome contributions from others though.
