- Rated 5 out of 5by AndyL964, 6 years agoGreat addon! No more having to look at all the garbage included in the url!
Is it possible if you could add support for Firefox Android? It will be really helpful, especially since the address bar is a lot shorter on the mobile version. - Rated 5 out of 5by RAJES23, 6 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by The Beard Below My Chin, 6 years agoFrom a glance the rules are not easy on the eyes and looks like an inconvenience to maintain. It could be improved if they were formatted by newline and there was a switch for case sensitivity. With uMatrix as inspiration, I propose this format and I fully understand if this is out of the scope of the project.
retain domain (case sensitive | insensitive) (comma separated params/spaces ignored from here){newline} //keep matching params, remove everything else
delete domain (case sensitive | insensitive) (comma separated params/spaces ignored from here){newline} //remove matching params, keep everything else
cutoff domain (case sensitive | insensitive) (relax = $/|force = $$/) (single param){newline} //remove all parameters after matching single param
ignore domain{newline} //no operation, paramerters untouched/whitelist
local rules and ignore override global rules.
example:
delete * sensitive badparam, evilparam, etc //globally remove, case sensitive
retain * insensitive okparam, goodparam, etc //globally keep, case insensitive
delete website.* sensitive evilref, badstuff, etc //locally remove, case sensitive
retain website.* sensitive evilref, badstuff, etc //locally keep, case sensitive
delete website.* insensitive okparam, goodparam, etc //locally remove, bypass global rules, case insensitive
retain somesite.com insensitive badparam, evilparam, etc //locally keep, bypass global rules, case insensitive
cutoff somesite.com sensitive force okparam //trim all parameters after 'okparam', relax = $/, force = $$/
ignore anothersite.com //whitelist - Rated 5 out of 5by Rick, 6 years agoThere are snippets at the bottom of the New Tab Page in Firefox, and i clicked on one and it took me here - https://blog.mozilla.org/internetcitizen/2018/05/23/gdpr-mozilla/?snippet_name=8315#utm_source=desktop-snippet&utm_medium=snippet&utm_campaign=13thingsGDPR&utm_term=8315&utm_content=REL
My question is how do i create a Parameter for this? i tried everything and nothing works to completely clean it, only partially clean it. And it's not because of extensions on Mozilla websites because i have set the correct preferences in about:config to fix that.
Also, on certain Amazon pages, such as https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013CCTJKE - if you change options such as 32 GB, 64 GB and 128 GB, sometimes it will add ?th=1 to the end of the URL, if i delete ?th=1 and press enter the URL will go back to a complete clean URL. is there anyway to create a parameter for this? i've seen some product pages, the ?th=1 will always come back no matter what, which makes me believe there is no parameter to create for this.
i've tried th@amazon.com and it doesn't work. Maybe you can take a look at this and figure something out.
Thank You in advance.
*Edit*
i found another Amazon URL that i can't figure out how to clean with a parameter - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AZWYUA4?aaxitk=EHCrA6mbNmFFgn2BVN57lg&pd_rd_i=B00AZWYUA4&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=5582544217303223519&pf_rd_s=desktop-sx-top-slot&pf_rd_t=301&pf_rd_i=rOtring+600&hsa_cr_id=2522701590101&_encoding=UTF8&tag=cavemancircus-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=c1fb83f30f4992600b99db7c319e6f7d&camp=1789&creative=9325 - Rated 5 out of 5by trim, 7 years agoWow this addon really do the job. Love the feature of being able to edit my own rule.
Just want to ask how this addon works: Is it: a) Load a url >> remove tracking link >> go the the page OR b) Load a url >> go to the page with tracking link >> removing tracking url >> go to the page with clean url. If the answer a) then it's all good.
I use this addon primarily to remove ebay tracking link (_trksid, _trkparms, hash, si, item & still adding). But I had encountered a problem when I put _trksid@ebay.* - this rule did not work in ebay.com.my site. ebay have different kind of site like ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, ebay.com.au, ebay.ca for example. So is the rule I put only works in ebay.com only?
To fix the issue indirectly, I just put _trksid globally so the addon just block it regardless of different domain.Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi and thank you for your review.
To answer your question, it's option A. Regarding your ebay issue: I will investigate and track that in https://github.com/Smile4ever/firefoxaddons/issues/135
