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.

Description (please include examples/screenshots where applicable)

Skip Redirect version 2.3.5 Default settings

I encountered unexpected redirects when I tried to pay in shopping websites, which caused failed/duplicate orders/payments and some unexpected issues. It took me quite some time to find out Skip Redirect was the culprit.

Since it is pretty common to encounter such issues, I would suggest adding this entry to the default no-skip-urls-list:

/pay

or

/payment
/payform
