Installed Redirector but it isn't showing on the menu bar, but I have chat & pocket neither of which I recognise.
Time to blow this profile away.

Yep I should have used a code tag as the forum software put those stupid ...'s in the URL's, I keep forgetting that feature
And yes those darn spaces got to me too when I tried to cut and paste the book url from here.
@hairy
I used the add-on with FF 43.0.4 with my normal uBlock Origin enabled and had no issues.
Just checked again today with FF 44 and again no issues, went to amazon.com, searched for the divergent series in kindle and then every link I clicked was diverted to the .co.uk amazon site.

The first line outputted should be the full .co.uk URL if the redirector addon is working.

The other useful tag to know is [nobbc]some text[/nobbc] which stops anything inside being messed about with. If you quote this post you'll see I had to use it to show you the tag itself.
nobbc = no bulletin board code

Weird.
I just copied and pasted that URL in the error message and it worked. Puzzling.
I did have one thought and that is if you use HTTPS then the rule needs to use the https in the url patterns, so you need 2 redirector rules, 1 for http and another for https.
I guess you'll need to disable all add-ons and extensions and just enable the redirector which should work and then go through enabling the others to see when it stops working.
@spoon
I'll have to try and remember that one too.

You are missing a slash after the word ebook and before the $2 in the "redirect to" setting and also missing the slash after the ebook in the "include pattern"

And it is caused by having the "redirect to:" set as
www.amazon.co.uk/$1ebook/$2
If you set it to
http://www.amazon.co.uk/$1ebook/$2it works.
