- مقيّمة بِ ٥ من ٥كتبها مستخدم فيرفكس 6125715, منذ ٧ أعوامWorks fine as described. Formerly I used https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/context-search-x/ which is a legacy add-on, but two of its features I wish for "Context Search WebExtension" too:
1. Favicons
2. The uppermost search engine is dedicated as standard. Therefore no need to move the mouse into the pull down menu of various search engines, but click just the main entry "Context Search" (with the magnifier icon) in the context menu and - voilá - the standard search engine is chosen and searching.
3. Of course, grouping would be a nice-to-have feature too for me.رد المطور
نُشرت منذ ٧ أعوام1) Favicons aren't supported in the WebExtension API currently.
2) I could look into that. Won't promise anything
3) Grouping is now supported, albeit limited to 1 level. I'll look in to supporting deeper folder nestling. - مقيّمة بِ ٥ من ٥كتبها VanguardLH, منذ ٧ أعوامI've been using SmartSearch for a long time. Rather than right-clicking a highlighted string and getting only the Google choice afforded by Firefox, I could select which search provider to use. Alas, SmartSearch is a legacy (non-WebExt) add-on so it will die with Firefox 57.
A feature missing in this add-on that SmartSearch has is allowing the user to group their search URLs. That is, under the Search[es] folder, the user could define subfolders. For example, I have all my Google-based searches (general, image, news, maps, etc) grouped under a Searches/Google subfolder. All my Bing search URLs are under a Searches/Bing subfolder. Search providers for which I do not have multiple search types (differentiated by, say, images, news, videos, shopping, etc) have only a single entry so they reside under the Searches folder. This add-on will find all the search URLs under the subfolders (groups) but flattens out its context menu to show all search URLs at the same 1st-level of the context menu. I have 22 search URLs. This makes for a long list. Likely it will get longer. When I intend to search, I already know which one that I want to use so drilling through groups is easier than my eyes rolling up and down scanning a long flat list.
In flattening the list, it is generated in the order the subfolders are alphebetized as subfolders under the Searches folder. So there is still a bit of grouping. However, I would prefer the add-on support subfolders as did the SmartSearch add-on.
Thanks for making a WebExt version of a context search. I would really miss SmartSearch went it gets killed by FF 57.
UPDATE
Woohoo! Subfolders got added in the last release. I was doing some research on an upcoming vacation looking for places to get outdoors (less commercial, cheaper, and more relaxed). I was using Context Search, did some searches, and then realized that I had been selecting my search providers in the subfolders into which I had grouped them. YES! Hurrah to the author, and thanks to Zitronella on mentioning another webext add-on that this author could use as an example of code for context menu subfolders.رد المطور
نُشرت منذ ٧ أعوامThanks for the feedback! This extension is kind of bare bones in comparison with SmartSearch, mainly due to the limitations of WebExtensions. I can't find a way to add submenus with the current WebExtensions spec, unfortunately. If it's added in the future, I'll look in to it! Cheers!
Edit: I found out how to do it and have updated the extension with subfolder support. - مقيّمة بِ ٥ من ٥كتبها ZzzZombi, منذ ٧ أعوامGreat job. I was looking for this since no other addon is a webextension. Just one question though, but let's take it to the support page:

- مقيّمة بِ ٥ من ٥كتبها مستخدم فيرفكس 13128982, منذ ٧ أعوامThis addon works great. I was hoping that some kind developer would make this extension for WE. A great big thank you for making the transition to WE much easier. I use the ability to search stores and anywhere else I wish several times a day.
