    Same as previous review: I could use this if searches were persistent across pages, like the original search function (ctrl-f) works. It's of no use if you have to re-enter 4+ keywords at every page load!

    It looks really good on paper, but it's unusable in practice. I have the same issue than another user (I don't know how I could have responded on the same thread).
    As soon as you start scrolling, the text of the page moves (expected), but the highlight don't (not expected, like a fixed background image).

    Hi. If possible, could you please give me more details on this problem: website, browser version, and sequence of actions? (through email or github, maybe)
    Otherwise, I wouldn't even be able to see this issue. Because it always works as expected with the newest version and on websites that I use this extension for.

    Is a good idea but on scroll all marks stay floating all arround.

    Hi. I don't exactly see how this can be a problem the way you described it.
    If you don't need a particular group of highlightings anymore, you should click the cross button at the upper-right corner of the extension window to remove them.

    I'm trying to make it work but it doesn't even highlight one keyword (maybe idon't understand how it works, the developer has a poor example screenshot)

    (In response to the developer whom i thank for the reply)
    Pressing the find button doesn't work (i obviously did that)
    (My version is firefox56)

    Hi, to find and highlight strings on the page you need to click the 'Find' button.
    I use this extension myself almost every day and it definitely works in such a simple case.

    Hi, again.
    I tried to check what could be wrong between firefox56 and my extension. And it seems firefox56 just doesn't support text searching on a page at least in a form as current browsers do.
    As I can see 56 version was issued 1.5 years ago, and some things must have changed in such a timespan.
