Rated 5 out of 5
by Firefox user 14666626, 6 years agoI really appreciated that the creator added some basic comments on what the addon can do in the description, as well as the "Example" field that helps you understand what you did wrong much quicker.
Of course I still had trouble adjusting to RegEx and Wildcard, but I think the creator did a lot to make sure the adjustment was smooth.

- Rated 5 out of 5by c3Vja2l0ZHJ5, 4 hours agoOn desktop, use it to autosort web stores by price low to high every click. Tired of it always going to "Most relevant" ☠️
And on mobile! Use it to go around annoying mobile/desktop toggle sites. Mostly just skip the mobile site entirely 😁 if I want the mobile site only, I can just find their app 🙄 - Rated 5 out of 5by Aengine, 9 hours agoI've used this for a while to change site homepages and the like. Very easy to use, very user-friendly.
- Rated 5 out of 5by ZX81, 19 days agoSince "Block Site" no longer reliably redirects live.vodafone.* to another site, I was forced to look for an alternative solution - and that's how I found "Redirector," which has been working great so far.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Lukas, a month agoThank you so much. I had to manually edit the link in one of our platforms every time I a clicked link when outside of the network...
Now I don't have to. This made my life so much happier - Rated 5 out of 5by Odmin, 2 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18773703, 4 months agoDoes 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. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18599588, 5 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by xav.ie, 5 months agoExcellent. Great documentation and it works flawlessly. Thank you!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Bontra817, 5 months agoLove 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. - Rated 5 out of 5by Rusty, 6 months agoProject 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!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Fox Bally, 6 months agoIt works fine. However, it doesn't work when I click some links like on a username who blocked me.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Korwin, 6 months agoA 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.
- Rated 5 out of 5by FamilyFriendly, 7 months agoSolid extension! Using it to redirect x.com to twitter to make the blueblocker extension work. Easy and fast setup
- Rated 4 out of 5by wjandrea, 7 months agoExcellent.
Although, the example doesn't work (needs https). I submitted an issue on GitHub.
