It wasn't working until I tweaked it like that:

function replace(word1,word2){
window.location.href = window.location.href.replace(word1, word2)
}
window.addEventListener('click', function() {

replace("shorts/","watch?v=")
});
if (window.location.href.indexOf("shorts") > -1){
window.addEventListener('mouseover', function() {
replace("shorts/","watch?v=")
});
}


The first function call is for when I click on the button shorts, while the second one is if I accessed The shorts through a hyperlink.
