Amazon not cleaning?

[n-o-o-b]

Just installed the extension and was trying it out on Amazon. It doesn't seem to be doing any cleaning.

I compared a product page with Clean Links enabled and then with another similar extension I have, Neat URL.

With Clean Links I get this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Expert-Workwear-Visibility-Waistcoat-Pockets/dp/B072395LQ5/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1544548795&sr=8-4&keywords=hi+vis

With Neat URL I get this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Expert-Workwear-Visibility-Waistcoat-Pockets/dp/B072395LQ5

This add-on removes redirects. There are none in your link.

So you are saying that Neat URL and Clean Links have different purposes?

[Cimbali]

Exactly. We remove redirects, they remove useless parameters. Ideally CleanLinks should do both, but I don't have enough time to extend it right now (PRs are always welcome!)

An example, take the following link: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&[...]&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.es%2F&usg=AOvVaw2fvwiWaCMKbEtPof3eFeuj

CleanLinks will replace it with https://www.amazon.es/

NeatURL* will replace it with https://www.google.com/url?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.es%2F

* Disclaimer: only illustrating the different purposes of the addons, I didn't actually go test NeatURL.

Okay, that makes sense now. Almost. What I don't understand is, where does the first link come from? Google search?

Yes this is an example I've taken from searching "amazon" in the spanish google, hence amazon.es
