2025-01-10 Firefox user 18773703 Does not always function; specific URLs are simply not redirected, despite perfectly matching the pattern. This seems to be a related to different servers and how they handle HTTP requests; however, other add-ons can perform redirects perfectly, while this add-on cannot. The add-on fails silently, and does not even make an attempt to redirect these URLs.

2024-12-23 xav.ie Excellent. Great documentation and it works flawlessly. Thank you!
2024-12-22 Bontra817 Love this extension. These days search engines are giving you 25+ years of internet history by default, and for many subjects that can be a lot of old data that is not relevant. I used the extension to add a date range filter to the past year by adding "&df=y" to the URL. Example Pattern: h++ps://duckduckgo.com/* Redirect: h++ps://duckduckgo.com/$1&df=y Replace "+" with "t" had to change in order for site to allow post.
2024-11-21 Rusty Project I'm working on has an old domain and a new one. No idea why, but we're supposed to use the new one. People still send me to the old one...everything is identical except the domain. I have to login everyday and it's a pain. This extension has solved that and I can simply click people's incorrect links and be redirected to the new domain no problem!
2024-11-12 Fox Bally It works fine. However, it doesn't work when I click some links like on a username who blocked me.
2024-11-10 Korwin A great solution for, for example, customizing the display of a default sort order for comments on Reddit other than "Best". Unfortunately, setting up the rules requires knowledge of regular expressions, which is not something every housewife can do. I would suggest using something like the method used by the "Add custom search engine" extension by Tom Schuster as an accessible alternative.
