Neat URL by Geoffrey De Belie

by Mark, 8 years agoI'm not sure if it's working or not. Whenever I search addons.mozilla and I find an addon I might be interested in I click on the link and open it in a new tab. The URL in the address bar says, "https://addons.vaultpit.io/en-US/firefox/addon/neat-url/?src=search". If I wanted to bookmark this addon I'd have to go up and select the "?src=search" and delete that part of it and reload the tab to get a clean URL.
After I installed your addon I thought it would remove the "?src=search" part of it, but it didn't. So I opened your addons options and I entered "?src=" (without the quotes) then saved the preferences. I even put a comma and space before it to separate it from all your other entries. Anyhow that didn't work. Then I tried entering, "?src=search" (again without the quotes) and that didn't work; neither did "?src=*".
Why won't your addon remove the "?src=search" part of the URL? What am I doing wrong, can you help?
EDIT: Thank you Geoffrey De Belie, using just "src" (without the quotes) worked perfectly. I adjusted my rating.

posted 8 years agoHi. You need to use "src" or "[email protected]" to make it work, omitting the question mark and the double quotes. Please let me know if that fixes it for you, thanks.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13202285, 4 years agoCame over from Clear URLs since it broke payment portals from time-to-time. Neat URL seems to strike a nice balance between maintaining privacy and not interfering with the browsing experience. Thanks to the developer!
- Rated 5 out of 5by retrovertigo, 4 years agoGreat tool! Sorry marketing ppl.
Looking forward to v6 :) - Rated 5 out of 5by agreement, 4 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 5509918, 4 years agoХорошее расширение. Было бы удобно иметь возможность редактировать список дефолтных правил прямо в его окне вместо того, чтобы добавлять исключения. Ещё было бы хорошо добавлять сразу несколько параметров для одного домена, типа [param1, param2, param3]@domain.com
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 5612562, 4 years agoMoved away from CleanLinks because it would break too many sites with the embedded url feature. I do wish Neat URL had regex support and a UI to easily add more blocks and to troubleshoot/see what has been blocked, but it works great either way. I'm attaching my custom blocking rules that include stuff I've exported from CleanLinks- https://pastebin.com/Hgae9Ans

- Rated 4 out of 5by peacefulpotato, 4 years agoI used ClearURLs for a while until I learned that it made constant requests to Cloudflare. This one is almost perfect but it doesn't seem to work on AMO. Probably a browser restriction, though.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Barraguesh, 5 years agoClearURLs refugee here. As another comment said, ClearURLs breaks some websites like Decathlon (from time to time) plus this one is lighter so it's a win win.
