There are a number of ways to search multiple sites at the same time.
Folder search -> Search every engine in a particular folder with one click.
When using the context menu, enable "Show an option to search the entire folder at the top of the menu". This places a menu entry that allows searching every engine in the folder.
When using one of the tile-based menus, map a mouse button to a folder search action under Quick Menu -> Search Actions. Tile-based menus also allow for clicking several engines, one after the other, while keeping the menu open, whereas the context menu does not.
You can also create a new engine with multiple URLs in the template field. Simply enter them as a javascript array, i.e. ["http://somewebsite/q={searchTerms}", "http://someotherwebsite/search/{searchTerms}"]
Существует несколько способов одновременного поиска на нескольких сайтах.
Поиск в папке -> Поиск в каждом движке в определенной папке одним щелчком мыши.
При использовании контекстного меню включите «Показать параметр для поиска во всей папке вверху меню». Это помещает пункт меню, который позволяет искать каждый движок в папке.
При использовании одного из меню на основе плитки сопоставьте кнопку мыши с действием поиска в папке в меню «Быстрое меню» -> «Действия поиска». Меню на основе плитки также позволяют щелкать несколько движков один за другим, оставляя меню открытым, тогда как контекстное меню этого не делает.
Вы также можете создать новый движок с несколькими URL-адресами в поле шаблона. Просто введите их в виде массива JavaScript, например ["http://somewebsite/q={searchTerms}", "http://someotherwebsite/search/{searchTerms}"]

- Rated 1 out of 5од LawrenceSan, пред една годинаI've used many, many different extensions in several different browsers over many years. (I'm an experienced web developer, starting when the web was first invented, and can code several different web languages -- in other words, I'm not a newbie.)
ContextSearch web-ext has the most complicated, buggy preferences interface I've ever seen in a browser extension. I have it running in both Firefox and Chrome, and when it works it's great -- but trying to customize it, add search engines, etc. is a nightmare.
Currently one of the engines in my ContextSearch list is "Google Maps". It works fine in Firefox, but doesn't work at all in Chrome, just leads to a blank page. So I tried exporting it from Firefox into Chrome. Forget it! The export/import features in the extension's customization interface appears to just export the URL for the icon, not for the search engine itself? And some of the gazillion preferences-interface elements for this extension, in both browsers, appear as just solid gray blocks -- regardless of what theme I use, or whether Dark Reader is on or off, or what other interface options I choose for ContextSearch itself. Of the options (including links) that I can see clearly, most of them don't do anything like what their name implies or what I'd expect them to do.
I haven't given up on it because, for the engines I finally get working, it's very useful. But I spend more time wrestling with this interface than with all my other (many) installed extensions put together! - Rated 5 out of 5од Firefox user 5599219, пред една година

bravo Mike B - Rated 5 out of 5од XacK, пред една годинаGreat add-on
Lacks the option to "Close menu on right click" - Rated 5 out of 5од maikcheck, пред една годинаThis has very quickly become one of the essential extensions that I need to have installed on each of my devices’ web browsers. Adding search engines to use in conjunction with Firefox’s search shortcut keywords as well as being able to insert bookmarklets into the quick menu have been absolute game changers.

posted пред една година(edit) That bug has been found and will be fixed in the next release
The save bug is known and may have been addressed in a recent version. I know it's been a persistent annoyance.
As for the transparency, you should be able to set that yourself using CS Options -> General -> User Styles. Use CSS selectors to apply opacity levels to the menu. If you need help, open an issue at the github site.- Rated 1 out of 5од mimigu, пред една годинаVersions after May no longer work. I would like to downgrade to an earlier version but can't find it.

posted пред една годинаYou can find older versions here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/contextsearch-web-ext/versions/
But depending on what when wrong, that may not fix your problems. If you could elaborate on the issue, either here or at the support site, I'd be happy to go over some troubleshooting with you. https://github.com/ssborbis/ContextSearch-web-ext - Rated 5 out of 5од bezuma, пред една година

- Rated 5 out of 5од OzMerry, пред 2 годиниLove this add-on and use it all the time, but as of today 16-May-2023 (same date as last updated), it no longer works. Clicking on the icon in the overflow toolbar does nothing. I hope this can be fixed soon.
Edit: Thank you for responding. I've reported the issue on Github, as requested. I'm happy to try debugging advice (I'm in Australia, so probably a time difference).
Edit 2: Well I thought I'd fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling it, but when I logged into my laptop today, it wasn't working again.Одговор на развивачот
posted пред 2 годиниI wonder if something went wrong during the update. If reloading the browser didn't fix the problem, please open a new issue at the support site here.
