- Rated 5 out of 5by lolothesilly, 2 days agoVery useful! I got tired of being inundated with irrelevant advertised products on shopping sites, so I download this and set a filter to highlight words like "ad" and "sponsored" in red on the sites I use. Instant clear visual cue so I know which items I can skip over & which ones are what I actually searched for, without having to hunt down the small-print "ad" markers. Thanks for the great plugin :)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Alexander A., 5 months agoHello, Wim. Couldn't find a bug report page, so I'm posting it here.
There's a bug with Regex's Lookahead/Lookbehind where it mixes up colors of the highlighted words if a pattern containing Lookahead/Lookbehind was found (at least that's how I think it works).
To reproduce this you need to create three lists and color them red, green and blue. Then add to each list one of these patterns: "r(?=[a-z])", g(?=[a-z]), b(?=[a-z]). Then reload a page and see that a lot of the highlighted letters don't match their colors. It will also mix up the colors of patterns not containing Lookahead/Lookbehind if you add those as well.
A couple of requests: could you please make the list of word lists slimmer? I usually make a bunch of differently color-coded lists for websites, and sometimes it requires some amount of scrolling to get to the list I need. Also, notifications that the list is limited to certain websites are unnecessary because, you know, every list should have those. Also, case-insensitive sorting method for lists and words would be appreciated.
Other than that, it's a "Must Have" add-on, greatly improved my browsing experience! - Rated 5 out of 5by Paulo muniz, 7 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Dylan, 3 years agoExactly what I was looking for and works exactly as expected. Extremely helpful in quickly sifting through job postings to highlight keywords that are applicable to my skills. Thanks for developing this extension, Wim, exceptionally helpful!

- Rated 5 out of 5by The Voice Inside Your Head, 3 years agoI love it, soon to be #1 find/search tool Firefox extension. Many thanks, I am so happy, see me smile ear to ear.
Many of the "save" bugs are fixed by clicking "save" and then closing the browser, and reopening the browser, wella!!, the change has been made, sometimes not. Have fun with it. - Rated 5 out of 5by semo65, 4 years ago
