NEW in version 0.9.11

We reverted back to the old manifest version 2 because a well known Firefox bug that causes a lot of troubles for this and many other addons hasn't been fixed for the last 8 months and probably won't for some time. Too bad. You can read more about the bug at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1851083

NEW in version 0.9.10

• Added <all_urls> optional host permission to get rid of the green dot if you are annoyed by it. See Mozilla bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1851083
• Some omnibox search and Web Search fixes with our new MV3 code.

User Questions:

Q: Can I add my own sites/searches?
A: Yes of course. On the edit screen go to "Available Searches" klick on the input field and search for the sites you want to add. If it isn't already available a form where you can create new searches will appear. For a step by step introduction watch our editor screencast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYZ_qnivQvg
