posted 7 years agoHi Masson, I just submitted an update (version 3.13.2) that should fix the problem that everyone's encountering. It was my mistake. :s Apologies for the inconvenience!- Rated 5 out of 5by iscar, 7 years agoFF58 fix - in options for "Pop-up behaviour" change mouse behaviour to - "open in new/background tab (next to current tab)", same for "Context menu behaviour" - "open new/background tab (next to current tab)".

posted 7 years agoHi JunjieFu, I just submitted an update (version 3.13.2) that should fix the problem that everyone's encountering. It was my mistake. :s Apologies for the inconvenience!- Rated 5 out of 5by John Staples, 7 years agoI wondered if something like this existed! Is there a way to open the link in a ''new'' tab?
LOL I went through the options and figured it out..I have always wanted, to be able to do this in FF. Thanks so much for creating this wonderful add-on.... - Rated 5 out of 5by Shahrzaad Parekh, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by e-motiv, 7 years agoExactly what I was looking for!
Hoping that soon...
...it syncs with firefox search engines settings soon (without manual), .

...keyword keyboard shortcut will be enabled (there are workarounds to webextension API shortcoming here) - Rated 5 out of 5by ff1f9f6f4, 7 years agoGreat replacement for DictionarySearch! - Thank you!!
I only have one suggestion:
It is unfortunately not possible to open the links directly from the context menu.
I have first to navigate to SwiftSelectionSearch
and then to the links below.
It would be great to have this option directly in the context menu (like DictionarySearch).

Thanks!! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13616837, 7 years agoBest search add-on for Firefox. Easy to use and add new search engines. I was searching for something like 'Selection Search' for Chrome and finally found it. A Must have.

Wow, thank you so much for taking the time and responding for such a minor thing! Updated and verified that it now works in comment systems like Disqus. Sorry, for some reason the addon system in FF 57 Quantum didn't update this addon accordingly, had to re-download. Cheers, I really appreciate this! Thank you very much Daniel, fantastic addon and work = )
==================
Great replacement for FastestSearch, which frankly is taking far too long to update for FF57 *cough*... However, I notice this addon doesn't work if highlighting text in the disqus comment system, in particular. Would you mind having a look?Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi 881bbe, sorry for taking so long to reply! I suspect this was a problem that was fixed in version 3.13.0, in which I changed the way SSS registers with pages and their frames (requiring a new permission, unfortunately).
Could you please check if it works now? If it doesn't, can you please create a new issue at https://github.com/CanisLupus/swift-selection-search/issues or email me at daniel.lobo+sss@gmail.com with an example? Thanks!
Cheers,

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13560785, 7 years agoThe best search-add-on I've ever used so far! Very easy to customize, just what I needed. Thanks!

- Rated 4 out of 5by mkeroppi, 7 years agoDoes not get favicons for resource:// type, e.g., resource://search-plugins/images/yahoo.ico
- Rated 5 out of 5by recycler.fox, 7 years ago3.11.1 - one fantastic update! Since some of sites have shitty search engines, but others don't work with Firefox 57 at all (something about post/get I guess) googling those with 'site:' is the only solution. Smart move! Thanks :)
Next step - this extension have to replace Firefox built-in One-Click Search Engines. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12148586, 7 years agoGood replacement for a legacy plugin with some new features. A little learning curve but nothing to difficult.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13519111, 7 years agoSimple to use with easy to understand options. Love the ability to add search engine and pop-up sources.
