Description from store
Extension for rewriting of host names when accessing a webpage. Will rewrite the host name regardless of method of access, both clicking a link and writing URL will work.
Usage example: Attempts to reach 'example.com/something'; will be redirected to 'mydomain.com/something';.
A sub domain, 'sub.example.com', will not be rewritten if a rule for 'example.com' is present. A specific rule for 'sub.example.com' needs to be added.
The extension needs to be configured from the extension button or options page before starting to work.

- (2023-09-20) Tony Bayart: Not working with payload (form post)
- (2021-04-28) Madhusoodan Pataki: It doesn't work. I was trying to add sort of hostname entries for intranet sites. (Using it as a DNS) here is some sample entry yash-2.foo.com 10.2.3.4
- (2021-03-06) klemn 02: Pretty much useless extension. Doesn't do what's advertised. Does not even look as the advertised image of it. Don't waste your time
- (2020-10-01) Iain McVey: Great extension - very useful for internet/intranet link problems. Has gotten really slow lately though?
- (2019-12-01) Ethan Shalev: works wonderfully. I tested a lookup loop, and it did in fact send the browser into an endless loop. I'd suggest adding some logic to warn the user about potential problems of this sort. I also created two rules directing from the same host. Only the first rule was applied (makes sense). When I clicked to remove the second one, both got removed (due to same key, I guess). I'd also add functionality to the icon, to have it highlighted on pages where it's being used, if such a thing is possible. To remind users that they have this extension installed, and that it's actively affecting the current tab. All in all, a small, excellent extension.
- (2019-02-11) Muhammad Ali: Its working been using to debug my WordPress website, Much better then editing hosts.
- (2018-07-17) google account name: Doesn't work, trying to change hostname from localhost to google.com
- (2018-04-07) Steven: Ändert die Requests per Search and Replace ab. Kein Verhalten wie beim Ändern der Hosts-Datei.
- (2018-01-22) Pranjal Dadhich: multi site host name rewriter should be done.
- (2017-10-08) Simply perfect. Update: Does not work when the target hostname gets reached via a redirect. From Google search results, for example. Once you land, you need to hit refresh to get redirected.
- (2016-12-15) Vamfoom Yang: Works great for me so far. Needed this to map some IPs when using work VPN.
- (2015-04-17) Craig Manley: It works, but it's not complete if it doesn't rewrite the domain= part of cookie response headers too.
Latest issues
- (2019-03-02, v:1.3.0) Too many dependencies.
This extension looks useful, but its source files reference a bewildering number of external dependencies. I don't have time to audit them for privacy issues, so I must skip this extension for now. I hope you'll release a new version with no external dependencies. - (2016-03-22, v:1.2.1) Toby Knighton: could not install
Package is invalid. Details: 'Could not load extension icon 'images/icon16.png'.'. - (2016-03-03, v:1.2.1) Viktor Linder: could not install
Package is invalid. Details: 'Could not load extension icon 'images/icon16.png'.'.
