Small plugin that does its job well. No worries here, been using it for a couple of years now.
How do I exclude more than one URL pattern?
A valuable add-on that does the job of multiple other redirection extensions, allowing you to streamline the web. One of the pillars of browsing customisation, alongside uBlock (not just an ad-blocker, but an anything-blocker), StyleBot and 'I still don't care about cookies'. Feature suggestion: Grouping and therefore group-toggling of redirects.
Welcome to the Chrome Dead Store, where all the s**ty "Manifest V3" comes into play, while Manifest V2 is left abandoned. Also, Update this to Manifest V3 NOW.

Finally!!! I really needed this, thank you so much!!!
I've tried all of the URL rewriters and this is the only one that works reliably for me. I love this tool. It's very cool.
lack of guide made this a pain to set up heres how to use: for "example url", put the normal base url in, (https://google.com) for "include pattern", put the normal base url in with a "*" at the end (https://google.com*) for "redirect to", put the redirect base url in with a "$1" at the end (https://redirect.google.com$1)
Works really well. There is a learning curve. FYI I initially had difficulty also. 1) first review the help file with the extension. 2) Turn on 'notifications while debugging" 3) For the "to:" location I initially was using "maps.google.com" Redirector was attempting to redirect. I was getting a notification. It was not redirecting. After I changed "maps.google.com" to "https://maps.google.com" it worked. It is finicky about the https:// before the redirect to address. Also RIP the developer. Einar Egilsson. Thank you for your work on this extension. https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/tghyq1/ueinaregilsson_created_the_game_site_cardgamesio/
"This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions." SAVE US DEVS! I DON'T WANNA LOSE THIS EXTENSION
works great but don't go to the http://example.com link, just don't also botan click create new redirect then type or paste the link you want to redirect from into the "example URL" and the "include pattern" field then type or paste the link that you want to redirect to then click save basically now the link in the "example URL" and the "include pattern" field will redirect to the link in the redirect to field you're welcome
After a different extension broke for redirecting Reddit to the new design, this works well! Here is how I set it up: Reddit Redirect: https://www.reddit.com* to: https://new.reddit.com$1 Example: https://www.reddit.com → https://new.reddit.com
Using it to opt out of the newest Reddit redesign (but not using the old version) and so far it works as intended
Needs a tutorial on how to redirect URLs with changes in the middle of the URL. For example: https://abcd/edf/ghij → https://abcd/ghij You apparently cannot do that in this redirector. As you put $1 in there it goes on till the end.
Using this to forcibly opt out of the new Reddit design. Works Great
Works great
very good thx
It works fine. The example didn't redirect when I first loaded up the config page, but after duplicating and deleting the rule it worked. I suspect that this temporary issue and the 1 star reviews are caused by some delay upon loading it up for the first time.
Doesn't work at all
Does not seem to work, even the example provided, "http://example.com/anywordhere", does not result in a redirect
Helped a lot. Thanks!
Great app to redirect url's for api calls. Note: Should have a profile functionality, where user can create a profile and have rules for that profile. So switching between rules is easy.
This extension can be used as a workaround for opening links to external apps from Notion! For example, a link from a Notion database to a specific folder in Eagle: Pattern: http://example.com/notion-to-eagle/* Redirect: eagle://folder/$1 And a formula in the Notion database to generate a link: link("Eagle Link","http://example.com/notion-to-eagle/"+prop("Eagle ID"))
Excellent, just what I was looking for! Redirect: (https:\/\/medium.*) to: https://freedium.cfd/$1 Hint: Just redirect the whole thing to freedium Hope this helps someone!
Extremely difficult to use, and poor examples to go by.
Works well for my needs.
The example supplied with the extension does work; but when I enter my own patterns, nothing happens. Something is amiss with this extension.
