Extension summary

Redirect Path flags up 301, 302, 404 and 500 HTTP Status Codes as well as client side redirects like Meta and Javascript redirects, bringing potential issues that may not otherwise be seen to your attention immediately.

As well as flagging up redirects and errors, the plugin also displays other HTTP Headers (such as server types and caching headers) and the server IP Address at the click of a button.

All the magic happens on your computer, so it doesn’t “phone home” to anyone (except when auto-updating itself) and is instantaneous.

The redirect path logo is from the "Iconic" icon set, which can be found here: http://somerandomdude.com/work/iconic/

CHANGELOG:

3.0: Updated the extension to support Googles Manifest V3 roll out, no other major changes

2.1.0: Added a '+' to icon when multiple redirects are detected

Would like to see the referrer added to the data for each of the redirection steps

My work uses GlobalProtect, a VPN client which automatically opens a `file:///` URL that contains a call to `window.location.assign()` to an authentication page. I enabled the toggle to allow access to `file:///` URLs in Chrome, then restarted the browser, but the extension didn't detect the `file:///` path.
