- Rated 5 out of 5by Twinkie, 3 years agoThis is an elegant add-on that does what it should, with a minimum of clutter.
I'd like to submit a feature request (at the risk of adding clutter...). Currently, when a search string contains multiple words, the add on substitutes plus signs for the spaces between search terms. This works for most sites, but some require space characters (or %20) instead. It would be great to have an advanced option to choose which of these, or a custom character, is included in the string, on a per-site basis.
Thanks for a great add-on! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16951590, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Григорий С., 3 years agoVery useful extension! I like to use it)
Очень полезное дополнение (реализует то, что по идее можно сделать функцией по умолчанию), просмотрел исходный код, ничего подозрительного не нашел. - Rated 5 out of 5by AMG, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16938578, 3 years agoDoes exactly what it says, and does it very well. How this isn't a built-in feature of Firefox in 2021 boggles my mind.

- Rated 2 out of 5by NormanFFox, 4 years agoFor whatever reason I can no longer just type in search phrases into duckuckgo.com in the main url bar with my custom settings. I simply want dark themed These options. (https://mycroftproject.com/search-engines.html?name=duckduck+dark). along with unfiltered ad free results instead of blaring white in my duckuckgo search engine. I though it would be easy to tweak back to normal. This add-on seemed promising for that purpose, but now (Friday 4-23-2021) for whatever reason its flawed for me exactly the same way reviewer Noxanne said ith a 1 out of 5 star rating (11 days before me) is. All it did was send me to the customized duckduck page colored dark but without search results (as though I typed no search phrase at all! and just typed "duckduckgo.com" ). This add-on shouldn't even be necessary, but it sounds great if it works. Its obviously broken from some Upgrade of Firefox version 80something or maybe because I have he linux version? I don't know. Good luck developers.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Noxanne, 4 years agoI tried putting in "https://images.google.com" and all it did was send me to the default Google Image page, effectively making the whole add-on pointless. Then I put in "https://images.google.com/search?q=%s" as the address for the search engine and Firefox would not even react to me pressing Tab.
On top of that, developers should refrain from using programmer jargon when developing add-ons such as these. Extensions for web browsers should never require the user to manually type in things like "addons:extensions#search". There should be a button for when the user wants to check their list of installed search engines. - Rated 5 out of 5by Андрей Зверинцев, 4 years agoСпасибо большое, не знаю, что я делал бы без этого расширения!
