👍

for me one of the best addon here on firefox......thank you so much mike b :)
god bless you!

Works straight out of the box. Double thumbs up.

There 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.

Thumb up,pretty good.
EDIT:More I use it more I appreciate it!

Good job Mike

Absolutely perfect! Thanks a lot.
I have in mind 1-2 more useful options to suggest.
Is here a proper place or I might use your support email address?

(edit 4/3/19)
Thank you for your response and effort.
I can understand the possible technical limitations, but I would only like to stress the importance and usefulness of such an “Open in SideView” CS added option:
In this way, one could easily lookup for any selected words/phrases, in a multitude of resources like encyclopaedia, dictionary, translation, TTS, etc. sites, WITHOUT having to leave one’s current tab/page.
Now, this is possible only by using “per resource/site” specialized add-ons like QuickDictionary or by opening the wanted resource/site in the SideView through existent bookmarks and then copying/pasting the looked up words/phrases.

* By “Side Bar” I meant that of FF, not the “Side Bar” of CS. In resent versions of FF opening links/bookmarks in its Side Bar is possible using the SideView addon.

Great addon!
What about an additional option “Open in Side Bar” in the Search Actions settings?
Thank you!

This extension does NOT WORK AT ALL when the profile folder is at different driver of firefox.(66.0b)
I always use the -profile in the shortcut to split the browser and the config apart.
For example, it works when Profile is in C:\ and failed when Profile in D:\ no matter the characters in the path(Browser is in C:\ in both case)
However, the job is really very well done I have to say, 2 stars is just to draw the attention and will changed after reply

好用

Best Search helper, Thank you for all your work
最好的搜索辅助工具：
先说我的用法：
制作搜索引擎文件夹，同类归类（综合、购物、图片），不常用的也收起。

左键长按弹出 Quickmenu
- 不松手移动到所需搜索引擎直接打开
- 松手右键点击「文件夹」以批量打开对应多个引擎的搜索结果页
- 利用内置 WordHighlight 持续追踪，在页内高亮多个关键词
- 用好谷歌站内搜索和谷歌图片搜索

1. 爆炸丰富的触发操作
选中自动展示、快捷键触发，左右键长按

2. 爆炸丰富的后续操作
左中右、Ctrl+左，Shit+左，当前/新/后台标签页，新窗口/隐私窗口

3.自动导入浏览器搜索引擎
因为火狐现在在地址栏三点菜单里面吗会自动显示可添加的搜索引擎，
不一定需要去具体搜索框右键添加，所以自动导入浏览器的就可以了。

Well, everything works right from the start. Even importing my search file from previous Firefox version. Yes, it has a lot of advanced settings and I like it. Thanks to the developer for this great addon!

This extension has a very unexpected side-effect! Viewing a website's code via Fx developer tools (but not 'View Page Source') shows code added by ContextSearch. That makes website development difficult. A lot of head-scratching before locating the cause of the bizarre looking stuff that I didn't put there. Disable ContextSearch web-ext and it disappears. Switched back to ContextSearch web-ext Lite.

Update: Did not occur with the lite version. Emailed author, and quickly fixed in 1.9.5. Addon has a ton of options; I use only the added context menu search items. If you encounter this issue in 1.9.5, try turning off some options.

The ability to import one-click search engines from Firefox makes setup a breeze. I really like this ext as long as it doesn't interfere with my web dev.

Wonderful

1. When highlighting text "too slowly" the tiled popup won't show. Time to select text and the popup to show should be longer. Is there a way to increase that?
2. In search fields, auto close the popup when start typing on (on-screen keyboard and regular) would be nice feature to have.


Does it happen on all websites?
>Yes
Could you be having a conflict with another add-on?
>No, tested with all other add-ons disabled.
What OS / FF ver are you on?
>Win10 64bit and FF64.0 64bit

If i highlight text fast and stop at the end for 1-2 seconds (still holding mouse button down), the auto opening popup never opens. Even tested with two different mice.
