maxurl: Blacklist rule not working
I’m trying to exclude processing on twitter images, so I’ve added pbs.twimg.com to the blacklist in the rules section. However all pbs.twimg.com images are still being redirected. I’ve tried pbs.twimg.com, pbs.twimg.com/*, pbs.twimg.com/**, pbs.twimg.com/media/*, and pbs.twimg.com/media/**.
Additionally, it’s not clear from the documentation how the URLs in the blacklist should be listed. Are they comma separated?
(And in case you’re wondering, I’ve written my own rule using Redirector because I’d like for an image of the format: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Es3w7NrXIAIsf0v?format=jpg&name=900x900 to redirect to: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Es3w7NrXIAIsf0v.jpg:orig rather than: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Es3w7NrXIAIsf0v?format=jpg&name=orig because the latter naming format breaks a bulk image downloader I use

Yes, those examples work as expected, and so do the other sites that I have tried now. Who would have thought my sample size of n = 1 for testing earlier would produce an anomaly? 😛 😃
