Redirect URL unblocking does not work
Issue URL (Incorrect Blocking)
Comment
I am starting from the following URL. I have the following exceptions
@@||go.redirectingat.com^$domain=slickdeals.net,important,third-party@@||slickdeals.net/clickI cannot get these URLs to redirect in Chrome. I disabled everything in AdGuard but the only way to bypass it is to actually disable the AdGuard extension.

I eventually figured out that I needed the rule @@||go.redirectingat.com^$document,important
Specifically, the $document. I only figured this out because I tried the same web page in Edge (which doesn't use the AdGuard filter - only the AdGuard Windows App) and it displayed a nicely formatted AdGuard blocked page that showed the page was being blocked by a rule ||redirectingat.com^$document
What doesn't make sense is the logs as shown in the screenshot didn't show the page as being blocked and until I switched browsers and manually edited the rule (which was originally added automatically through the logger), I would not have figured out the problem.
So, while this isn't a bug, I am leaving it as open in hopes that Chrome browser extension can be improved to
- diagnose the issue
- not falsely show the page as not being blocked when it was
- improve the unblock rule that was put into effect to include the $document portion
@chadcancode Hi. What the source of the link? An ad or something else?
Btw ||redirectingat.com^$document is loaded from EasyList.
The source was the slickdeals.net link from the original post.

I can't reproduce - all links to Amazon are direct.

Please use the slickdeals.net link I provided. It doesn't go to Amazon.

Even
@@||go.redirectingat.com^does not work.
Correct. I figured out that you need @@||go.redirectingat.com^$document but my issue is that $document wasn't automatically added by Adguard when I selected the link to be unblocked. I needed to figure this out and manually update the rule.
