Archived 🔒

• This repo is closed for 2 major reasons:
  1. I have lost 2FA credentials to log into my Mozilla account. So there is no possibility for future updates.
  2. The project requires a complete overhaul. Further patches will complicate it unnecessarily.
• I hope Alter was able to provide some value.

FAQs

Sometimes it is stuck and do not redirect. What to do?

• The Alter icon provides you the option to change redirect instances.
• In this case you need to change instance to a different one.

After update, some redirections are showing undefined. What to do?

• When new redirection feature is added, no instance is saved for the new feature. So alter does not know where to redirect.
• Click on the Alter icon and submit the form once. You'll be good to go.
