Can't wait for the fix. Excellent addon otherwise, one that I can't live without. Kudos to the dev.
EDIT:

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14361362, 5 years agoThank you for your great addon!
I would like to make the following two suggestions:
1. An additional option for appearing results “In the sidebar” (in the “Where should search results appear?” setting).
Similar application: On “Quick dictionary” and “Search in Sidebar” addons.
2. Direct Right-click or Shift-click on single words (without a selection precondition).
Similar application: On the (now deprecated) “Wiktionary and Google Translate” addon.
An excellent feature in terms of speed, that works even by clicking on youtube onscreen subtitles’ words (which anyway can’t be selected).Developer response
posted 5 years agoHi and thank you for your review. I especially like your first idea.. I'm working on it but I'm afraid not all search engines will work in the sidebar because they don't all accept HTTP requests. I had issues with DuckDuckGo, namely. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14585274, 5 years agoWorks great for me, no issues. I use this frequently and it performs very well. I consider this one of my favorite and most utilized add-ons.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12449250, 6 years agomissing icons((
screen: dropmefiles.com/aAXwt
UPD: Step by step. Did everything as you requested. Nothing changed.
Sites have icons ;)
Can i still help?Developer response
posted 6 years agoStrange indeed! Are you sure all those websites missing icons have a favicon? I checked tparser.org and it does appear to have a favicon. Would you please try first saving (downloading to a JSON file) your search engines, then removing the extension and the file storage-sync.sqlite from your Firefox Profile folder, and finally reloading your saved search engines in the extension's preferences page and let me know if you get the same results. Alternatively, you may try loading your search engines in a new Firefox profile to see if the problem persists. I'm sorry for the trouble. If the problem remains, then I'd appreciate if you would file a bug on Github. Thanks.
UPD: Would you mind sending me your list of search engines (the JSON file you can download), so I can do some testing on my end (I'm on Mac so I may get different results!)? Also, please feel free to give the latest dev version on Github a try. The code has gone through quite some changes since the last release on AMO. I should be able to release it soon, but I still need to polish a few things and do some testing. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14374278, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by quaz3, 6 years agoI was looking for a replacement for Fastest Search, compatible with Quantum. This is lacking most functionalities of Fastest Search, but hey - room to grow. At the moment I can't even get the icon box to appear reliably :(
My first few suggestions of easily several hundred ;)
- Please fix the icon box, that either it appears OR the context menu. Or let them both appear side by side. You could make all this optional.
- Display the icon box in the configuration menu.
- Keyword search without "cs" would be nice.
- There should be unlimited multi searches. A multi search should be one new search engine line, with its own keyword, and several keywords as its URL - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14271876, 6 years ago
