An excellent enhancement extension for Firefox Quantum. I use to use DictionarySearch to do the same thing but that addon had very limited functionality compared to the much more powerful SSS. However, using this with 59.0.2 doesn't allow you to Open a Search in a New Tab or Window for some reason though the options are available within SSS. A bug perhaps with the latest SSS and/or Firefox? Otherwise i would be rating this 5 stars instead of 4.
Update: changed my original rating from 4 stars to 5 stars because the developer worked with me closely in troubleshooting the issue I had and helped me resolve it. It was my own folly... I needed to change the Open New Tab behavior in the Popup behavior menu and not the Context Menu options. The extension now works perfectly. My first 5 star rating for the new age of Quantum. All hail SSS!

Hey, thanks for the review! :) I've replied to you (it is you, right? :P) on the issues page of GitHub. If the option is the correct one and there's another problem I'll try to find what it is. :)

- Rated 5 out of 5by atata, 2 months agoIt's great.
However, as the number of search engines I want to use increases, it becomes too large to fit them all.
It would be great if it had a multi-level structure using folders like bookmarks. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17966372, 2 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Leviii, 5 months agoAmazing addon, I have bunch of search engines saved and it prevents me from routing everything through google. Also I have integrated it with everything windows search app which makes it even more useful. Currently development is stalled but it's become irreplaceable for me.

- Rated 5 out of 5by mnaonmf, 5 months agoThis extension is absolutely fantastic—the intuitive yet powerful interface, the deep customization options, and the full backup and restore features make it a joy to use. Truly impressive work. You've covered it all (except an Android version 😭 though I know there's a fork I can use instead).

- Rated 5 out of 5by Aissa Jessus, 6 months agoVery effect and clean. Easy and quick to setup and add new search sites and customize them.
I am currently using it heavily for cross sites search and routine custom searches.

- Rated 5 out of 5by RichardJT, 8 months agoGood morning , i hope you're well. So, more default SEs nice, but easy enough to add. Sweet, sweet ride!!! Stays open when other tasks need attention; not like bill's menus.
6/5 bc this your only add-on.
7/5 bc i can't see a way to donate for your exceptional effort. C u on github, hopefully.

- Rated 4 out of 5by DynaZor, 9 months agowaiting for full Android Firefox Final (not only beta) release then 5 stars
- Rated 4 out of 5by Wolf, 10 months agoIt would be 5 stars, but gave 4 just because it is not localized. You should really add a localization feature, that would make this extension PERFECT!
