Hey!
Im using firefox 56.0.2
I want to deactivate a special redirect feature: I have a website which originally was named xxx.org and now has the new name xxx.net. i always get automatically redirected to the new .net domain.
On the other hand, i often get the message from firefox: "site wants to redirect to another webpage. do you agree?" or smth like this.
On the web i found some information:
'Firefox/Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"'
In 56.0.2, the Advanced page doesnt exist anymore.
So the first question: where do i find the option to turn on / off the auto-redirect?
And the second question: how do i turn off the redirect from an .org to a .net page? perhaps in the about:config or similar?
As i said, the asking before auto-redirect is already enabled, but i dont know where to turn it on / off or set further preferences
AND it doesnt work for the redirect from .org to .net.
I simply dont like a program override my input and there is no way to keep it!
Gz

Re: Deactivate automatic redirect
Note that accessibility.blockautorefresh may not handle all circumstances.
Also note that its possible that there is no ".org" page to "fall back to".
