- Rated 5 out of 5by Shock, 10 months agoVery useful addon to control the referer header when a server block the access giving code 403.
I had a big problem that I was unable to resolve playing with the html5 players templates itself.
Because the referer header is forbittnen to be changed inside the player.
This does the job actually well. Mo more code 403.
Used in addition to the CORS Anywhere addon allow me to get control of my player. - Rated 5 out of 5by Anonymous, 10 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14362366, a year agoFixed Pixiv not showing any pictures for me. That site has a separate domain (pximg.net) that serves all its images, and delivers a 403 Forbidden if the referrer does not contain pixiv.net. (target domain: pximg.net, origin domain: pixiv.net, keep)
Had to reset network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy in about:config to 0 however, as it seemed to interfere. This plugin provides the same functionality, thankfully (any domain: remove). - Rated 5 out of 5by MyDisplayName, 2 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by SketchLate, 3 years agoHaving just started messing with BURP and noticing how this data was being sent multiple times with each page loaded I immediately went looking for exactly this.
I was considering taking the time to learn coding if I had to to get something like this if it didn't exist so thanks for time saved my man. Developer response
posted 3 years agoSettings used to be available through the add-ons manager, but version 0.10 brings a toolbar button that should make the setting easier to accessible.- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 16477347, 4 years agoCannot hide referer FROM a specific website. It only hide TO (target).
Developer response
posted 2 years agoThat has changed with 1.0.0. Note that you can't leave the target domain field empty. If you want a rule that matches requests from a specific origin domain to any target domain use a regular expression like ".*$" for the target. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12500100, 4 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by FD, 4 years agoInstalled on Waterfox Classic 2020.06 (56.03), despite that it's flagged as incompatible in the browser's addons page, it's working fine ! I just had to add a domain rule and save the configuration to get it to work.
Waterfox has an option to tweak the referer but it's too basic for my needs.
Thanks you very much for your work, I'm so glad i found this great add-on !

- Rated 5 out of 5by _ztv, 4 years agoAdd a button to the panel, with the transition to the settings. It is possible even without an icon, all the same, its majority in the extended menu keep will be.

- Rated 2 out of 5by 𝖘𝖈͈̺𝖆𝖗, 6 years agoThis doesn't have the "Forge" option that RefControl had, which sends the root of the site being visited as the Referer. "Prune" is close but it will send https://r.search.yahoo.com as the Referer when visiting https://www.whatismyreferer.com/ for example. "Forge" would send https://www.whatismyreferer.com/ instead. Please add a "Forge" option. Thanks

posted 6 years agoI've created an enhancement issue (https://github.com/airtower-luna/referer-mod/issues/3) for a "forge"-like feature, you're welcome to comment on whether that'd be what you need.
