Swift Selection Search by Daniel Lobo
Review by aurelya
Rated 5 out of 5
by aurelya, 5 years agoI am loving this extension! Just wondering if you could add a user page or something where users can submit more examples (If something like this already exists, please let me know!)? A couple of things I'm looking for but haven't figured out just yet are how to have the selected text's hyperlinked url open as cached link [basically launch url as a google webcache search] or similarly open link as viewsource. Hope that somehow makes sense.
Here's some dumb ones I use regularly, lol, if anyone cares. :D

posted 5 years agoThank you for the review and sorry for the late reply! There's no user list for this but from time to time I see if there are some more engines that make sense as defaults or as examples that come with SSS.
These are good suggestions. Thanks for sharing them with everyone. :) I will think about the user list (actually added that to my to-do list), but it might be a little nightmare-ish to maintain with reasonable quality, so no promises! ;)
Cheers!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Sam, 2 days agoMany options and context menu search is convenient. I like the ability to group search engines together. More than one export/import options and dark/light mode; Fav-icon support. One of my most valued extensions.
- Rated 5 out of 5by scully, 8 days agoWorks very well, I use it daily. I customized it to search on Wayback, but also use Duck Duck Go, Google Translate, IMDB, and Amazon, as well as 'open as link'. Very useful!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Seb, a month agoGénial, double clique gauche et on a le choix du contect pour le rechercher: Wikipedia, Google, Translator, Yahoo, Youtube, ... et on peut ajouter LeBonCoin, Vinted, eBay ...
UN MUST HAVE - Rated 5 out of 5by Greg Sweats, 2 months agoThe G.O.A.T. 🐐 Look no further. Mainly because not only the search, and the useful customizations, but because it COPIES TO CLIPBOARD ON SELECT as well (when enabled in those great settings!). 🙏
- Rated 4 out of 5by dikunav, 2 months agoI wanted to use it to have Chrome convenient experience with selection Google search results (Chrome is better in that, but don't support multiple search engines and other cool functions), but I can use it only on desktop where I don't need it really much, and can't on Android where I really needed it.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17966179, 3 months agoこれの「Context menu title」の項目をデフォで使ってると選択したテキスト次第でコンテキストメニューがバカでかくなることがある
