Tip - if you want to remove the shortcuts associated with this extension remove them from it's Options page and from the Firefox Manage Extension Shortcuts page.

UPDATE: Very happy that you solved this! :) Thanks for the review!

For other users: changing the shortcuts from Firefox's "Manage Extension Shortcuts" menu doesn't work for SSS right now, so you must use the addon options page. That's because.....I didn't know that that menu existed!

I'll try to deal with this in the future.

Cheers!
Daniel

    Great Add-On. Highly customable and very efficient

    I prefer the context menu over the popup, but however you use it it's an excellent compliment to Firefox's native search options.

    please add three features .
    1) add url protocol engine . example:
    es:{searchTerms} target:_self . no new tab etc. icon url or local selection.

    2) add local app engine .
    example:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\WinCatalog\WinCatalog.exe /s "{searchTerms}" target:_self . no new tab etc. icon url or local selection.

    3)possible icon offline import or offline url file:///D:/Icons/google1.ico etc...

    please add features. and your extention more great...
    thanks
    Sincerely.


    reply 02: You can already use engines like es:{searchTerms} for searching with the Everything app.
    " i already using but i made config "Left mouse button click=new tab..."
    because youtube google etc search engines open in new tab.
    but url protocols es: test etc .. must be same tab target.
    sorry my bad english?
    can u understand my proplem? ?

    Hi and thanks for the review! If you have feature suggestions please report them to the GitHub issues page instead of here. :)

    1. I think you are looking for the "Discard on open" checkbox that each search engine has in SSS. It avoids creating a new tab. You can already use engines like es:{searchTerms} for searching with the Everything app.

    2. You'd have to use "file:///" before the actual path, but file paths won't work anyway because the WebExtensions API will block them as invalid URLs (i.e. "Error: Illegal URL: file:///C:/Applications/Something.exe") even though Firefox recognizes them as correct when writing them in the URL. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Cheers!
