(I'm an experienced web developer, starting when the web was first invented, and can code several different web languages -- in other words, I'm not a newbie.)
ContextSearch web-ext has the most complicated, buggy preferences interface I've ever seen in a browser extension. I have it running in both Firefox and Chrome, and when it works it's great -- but trying to customize it, add search engines, etc. is a nightmare.
Currently one of the engines in my ContextSearch list is "Google Maps". It works fine in Firefox, but doesn't work at all in Chrome, just leads to a blank page. So I tried exporting it from Firefox into Chrome. Forget it! The export/import features in the extension's customization interface appears to just export the URL for the icon, not for the search engine itself? And some of the gazillion preferences-interface elements for this extension, in both browsers, appear as just solid gray blocks -- regardless of what theme I use, or whether Dark Reader is on or off, or what other interface options I choose for ContextSearch itself. Of the options (including links) that I can see clearly, most of them don't do anything like what their name implies or what I'd expect them to do.
I haven't given up on it because, for the engines I finally get working, it's very useful. But I spend more time wrestling with this interface than with all my other (many) installed extensions put together! - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 5599219, 2 jierren lyn

Lacks the option to "Close menu on right click" Antwurd ûntwikkeler
2 jierren lyn pleatst(edit) That bug has been found and will be fixed in the next release
The save bug is known and may have been addressed in a recent version. I know it's been a persistent annoyance.
As for the transparency, you should be able to set that yourself using CS Options -> General -> User Styles. Use CSS selectors to apply opacity levels to the menu. If you need help, open an issue at the github site.- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch mimigu, 2 jierren lynVersions after May no longer work. I would like to downgrade to an earlier version but can't find it.

2 jierren lyn pleatstYou can find older versions here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/contextsearch-web-ext/versions/
But depending on what when wrong, that may not fix your problems. If you could elaborate on the issue, either here or at the support site, I'd be happy to go over some troubleshooting with you. https://github.com/ssborbis/ContextSearch-web-ext - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch bezuma, 2 jierren lyn

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch OzMerry, 3 jierren lynLove this add-on and use it all the time, but as of today 16-May-2023 (same date as last updated), it no longer works. Clicking on the icon in the overflow toolbar does nothing. I hope this can be fixed soon.
Edit: Thank you for responding. I've reported the issue on Github, as requested. I'm happy to try debugging advice (I'm in Australia, so probably a time difference).
Edit 2: Well I thought I'd fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling it, but when I logged into my laptop today, it wasn't working again.Antwurd ûntwikkeler
3 jierren lyn pleatstI wonder if something went wrong during the update. If reloading the browser didn't fix the problem, please open a new issue at the support site here.

There, I can better help troubleshoot and check for any problems. You can also edit your reply here and I'll try to talk you through some debugging. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 14623949, 3 jierren lynBest add-on I have, can't work without it.

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch FQ1, 3 jierren lynThis is the best search tool I've ever used, but the context menu often disappears. I'm using Win10, Firefox 108.0.1. I've tried reinstalling it, but it doesn't work.

3 jierren lyn pleatstSorry for the late reply. If you're still having issues, please edit your review and elaborate or visit the github support site and I'd be happy to look into the problem. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Gridlocked, 3 jierren lynThis actually works with any website that has a search bar - as far as I can tell.
IMO this is far better than any other 'context' search extension as all the rest are limited.
