    Cannot hide referer FROM a specific website. It only hide TO (target).

    That has changed with 1.0.0. Note that you can't leave the target domain field empty. If you want a rule that matches requests from a specific origin domain to any target domain use a regular expression like ".*$" for the target.

    This doesn't have the "Forge" option that RefControl had, which sends the root of the site being visited as the Referer. "Prune" is close but it will send https://r.search.yahoo.com as the Referer when visiting https://www.whatismyreferer.com/ for example. "Forge" would send https://www.whatismyreferer.com/ instead. Please add a "Forge" option. Thanks

    I've created an enhancement issue (https://github.com/airtower-luna/referer-mod/issues/3) for a "forge"-like feature, you're welcome to comment on whether that'd be what you need.

    This add-on used to work for me. Now that I've upgraded to Quantum (v60.0, 64 bit, Win7) it is no longer working.

    I am trying to use the "replace" action. I have confirmed using LiveHeaders that when I visit the target domain, there is NO "Referer:" directive at all. It's not wrong, it's missing. WilliamAHuston@gmail.com thanks.

    If the issue was with per-domain rules it should be fixed in version 0.5.
