Some web pages use intermediary pages before redirecting to a final page. This add-on tries to extract the final url from the intermediary url and goes there straight away if successful.

Rule for archive.org not working #254

Description (please include examples/screenshots where applicable)

I added the rule *://*.archive.org/* (from one of the closed issues) to the skip-urls-list (it's my only custom rule), but it doesn't seem to work. When I click one of my bookmarked web.archive.org links for "archived" websites, Firefox still tries to reach the original server instead of the archive.org backup.

Note: I have addons like clearurls installed, and the arkenfox user.js, don't know if they can interfere with this addon.

I was mistakenly using the skip-urls-list, so I moved the rule to no-skip-urls-list (for some reason the starting asterisk causes "nothing to repeat" so I had to write it as https://*.archive.org/* instead). Still the problem persists...

//web.archive.org/

ClearUrls and arkenfox does not interfere.
