by CC, a year agoDoes the job, also thanks for the reply to another review on the new hidden mozilla feature to add a engine manually.
From what I can tell that manual system that you posted on reddit is now working, I just tried it. However cannot edit or delete anything added in the settings interface.

posted a year agoYes, the built-in feature is incomplete and lacks the ability to edit any search engine you add.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17597815, 2 years agoSimple and effective. Solves searching Google.com and getting American information to UK specific queries.
For providing this, I salute you. - Rated 5 out of 5by lomni, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Bob, 3 years agoExcellent. One click add-on so that Google.co.uk appears as an option in my W10 FF97.0 settings for default search (which enables me to use 'Tools>UK only' to weed out irrelevant US sites). On my other computer I used a more comprehensive add-on to add any search engine where one had the URL code, but it was more fiddle to get the URL code exactly right (%s, etc). Wouldn't it be great if there was a way of making the search results come up with UK only sites without having to click 'Tools>UK only'. Many thanks.

Though Mozilla should make it so you don't need a plugin to specify the search engine you wish to use, bad form.Developer response
posted 3 years agoThere is a way under development but it's not fully mature yet and won't replace the convenience of add-ons. I've got a comment on Reddit with the steps: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/q276zg/is_it_no_longer_possible_to_easily_and/hfjiaol/ - Rated 5 out of 5by Gareth, 3 years agoDoes what its supposed to - gives you a new search engine option to explicity search Google UK rather than .com
Working great so far. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13450895, 5 years ago
