- Rated 2 out of 5by circcc, 19 days agoThere is no toolbar pop-up where you can directly enter search terms. So, Selection Search is better.

posted 12 days agoThis extension has an Icons Grid and you can also search in the url address bar. There's no need for a popup! Please read the extension's description. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17044199, 19 days ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12810666, 2 months agoVery useful now that Google apps buttons are broken below Google searchbar in Europe. I miss the Maps button that allowed a direct link to open.
To Olivier de Broqueville: ce serait super d'avoir la possibilité d'avoir dans le menu contextuel (après sélection + bouton droit) directement la possibilité de cliquer sur la recherche souhaitée (sans le menu déroulant intermédiaire). - Rated 5 out of 5by Alan, 2 months ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15332048, 3 months agoFirst of all, thank you for the plugin. I would suggest you add just one feature. The position of the icon grid can sometimes cause problems. It would be nice if we could adjust the Icon Grid position to get rid of this situation.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18109236, 5 months agoFantastic plug in - except that being the non coding type, I can't quite figure out how to add a search engine manually...it seems to me that when I first installed Context search some time ago, the read me/about this extension contained more specific instructions for doing thus than:
* add a search engine manually via the Options page (you can test the query string before adding the search engine) *
Obviously the search query strings are quite different for each site and I'm not sure how to locate them
Otherwise thank you so much - I prefer this extension to "ContextSearch web-ext", linked on the mycroftproject.com site...less bells and whistles, less is more ;oDeveloper response

posted 9 months agoHi, access to the clipboard is required if and when you want to copy or paste the base64 string of an icon to or from the clipboard (when you're creating a custom icon). That's the only time that access to the clipboard is needed.
UPDATE: Clipboard access is no longer required to copy/paste the base64 string of favicons. However, clipboard write access is now required to paste prompts into AI search engine web pages.- Rated 5 out of 5by Amartya, 9 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14446495, 10 months agoI wanted to highlight a Real Estate property address and then have multiple, local RE agencies directly open "the first hit" on Google (I used a DuckDuckGo "I'm feeling lucky" URL trick) and it works great for that doing a Multi Engine Search. I wish there was a way to have "separate" Multi-Searches, say, grouped by the "keyword" but otherwise, great work.
- Rated 4 out of 5by TheKwertyOne, 10 months agoThe newly added icon matrix interferes with other hotkeys. The option to disable it does not work for me at all, the 'tick' there does nothing to disable it.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Kane, 10 months agoit's impressive but i have a problem. certain website don't make searching on its site if the keywords is more than one.. for example, 'the tree'.. the site will show empty page.. but the site only give the result if there is no empty space between the words so i have to type "the%tree".. it just wont work unless the empty space is removed.. many site have the same problem. please guide me,

posted 10 months agoHi Kane, I'm sorry but I don't quite understand the issue you're encountering. Would you mind opening an issue on Github here: https://github.com/odebroqueville/contextSearch/issues and provide me with more details (e.g. a website for which you're encountering the issue) so that I can try to reproduce the bug. Also, where are you typing "the tree"? Searches are based on selected text, unless you're typing in the url address bar, i.e. Omnibox. Is this the case? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16555408, a year ago
