654614 - Redirect blocklist page to AMO

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Justin Scott [:fligtar]]

Our new blocklist page is now live at https://addons.mozilla.org/blocked and Firefox 6+ will use it to point to specific details of each block entry instead of the list of everything we've ever blocked.

This is a huge improvement for users and also for us, as we don't have to make separate changes to mozilla.com and wait for them to be pushed; they are updated automatically as part of the block.

Please redirect all requests to mozilla.com/blocklist to https://addons.mozilla.org/blocked

Thanks

What's the status of this? We're still having to update mozilla.com when we want to block something right now.

Cool, thanks!

It'll remove an extra redirect if we make the AMO URL https://

Raymond, is this verified?  I've looked at least at one path:
