- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13512887, 5 years agoI've added more than 5 custom search engines without any problems, and it's very easy to do.

As a suggestion can you include an autocopy feature?Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13599083, 5 years agoThis addon is great but is it possible to run all search engines in folder at the same time? Just like default in Firefox by "Search in all tabs". Similar solution in ContextSearch web-ext is missing and you must click again and again to use all search engines included in folder.
2nd thing is hotkey assigned to search engine. Is it possible to make not a single letter but e.g. 2-letter / 3-letter phrase?

When using the popup menu, yeah ( context menu folders have no usable click events ). Clicking the middle mouse button on a folder will search all engines in the folder with the current search terms and send the results to background pages. You can change this behavior in Options -> Quick Menu -> Search Actions -> Folders column.

Not currently. Be aware, the hotkeys only work with the quick menu opened. If you're looking to select text and press a key to immediately perform a search, you might want to open the qm using the keyboard method ( using CTRL for instance ) and then you can press your preferred search engine hotkey to execute a search. If you're looking for more functionality, consider opening a thread on the github support site. - Rated 5 out of 5by majopareja, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12527320, 6 years agoThere are a few add-ons that offer similar functionalities, namely:
Selection Context Search
Context Search
Context Search Origin
But as of May 2019, ContextSearch web-ext by Mike B is my choice.
- Highly customizable, way more than others
- Uses search engines registered for Built-in One Click Search Engines. So if it works from search bar, it should work for context menu as well. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14021854, 6 years ago
