URLRedirector Firefox

URLRedirector

Automatically redirect specificed urls to new pages.

Features & Capabilities

URLRedirector is a practical Chrome extension designed to automatically redirect specified URLs to new destinations based on user-defined rules. It matches URL patterns from the original URL and replaces them with target URL patterns, enabling quick and efficient redirection without manual intervention. For example, if a URL matches an origin pattern like http://www.foo.com/(\d+), it can be redirected to a target pattern such as http://www.bar.com?id=$1, where dynamic parts of the URL are preserved.

This tool supports loading redirection rules from an online JSON file and allows configuration of redirection conditions including exclude patterns, HTTP methods, and resource types. Its flexibility helps streamline web workflows, improve browsing efficiency, and manage URL changes effortlessly.

User Reviews

This is impossible to adjust, it blocks and lets through as it pleases. I don't think it can work any worse. I don't know who pumped up your rating for this piece of garbage.

.. be sure to set the little `redirect` hook on the popup to activate it and then it works great, thanks : )

Is URLRedirector Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

URLRedirector requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
