- Rated 5 out of 5by EffPeh, 7 years agoGreat! A really well thought-out extension.
I used "Add to Search Bar" before I find this tool. But this extension is much more better. I love the possibility to use a JSON file to customize my list.
It's not that important, but it would be nice if I could determine the order of the search engines by myself. Maybe the way I created it in the JSON file. Thank you for this excellent extension. :)

posted 7 years agoYour feature request might eventually be implemented, but I can't give you a time frame for this right now. For now, the search engines list is sorted alphabetically. - Rated 5 out of 5by Götz, 7 years agoWorks great as a a modern web-extension replacement for Context Search!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Reggie, 7 years agoWorks well but doesn't seem to recognize characters such as # and &. If included in selected text, everything after it is ignored. Searching for them alone redirects to main search homepage.

- Rated 5 out of 5by JonnyOne, 7 years agoNow i can edit my previous review. I have managed to make this addon works. It now deserves 6 stars!
The problem was "webextensions.storage.sync.enabled" sets to "false" in about:config Developer response
posted 7 years agoI will add startpage, but you may want to give Lilo a try. This search engine also uses Google and has the advantage of enabling you to contribute to numerous social and environmental projects just by searching. You can find out more at https://www.lilo.org/en/.- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12793893, 7 years agoLike the idea of being to able to choose which engine to use, depending on context :)
- Rated 5 out of 5by streetwolf, 7 years agoAre you going to let the user add their own search engines?
- Rated 5 out of 5by el-cravito, 7 years agoWith version 2.11 all the search engines that I need are already included.
Excellent work!
