- 评分 1 / 5来自 LawrenceSan, 1 年前I've used many, many different extensions in several different browsers over many years. (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! 开发者回应
发布于 2 年前You 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- 评分 1 / 5来自 Carottinger, 7 年前Gute Idee, vieeeeel zu komplex beim Hinzufügen neuer Suchmaschinen (keine Icon-URL - keine Suchmaschine???) - schon mal was von Usability gehört?

发布于 7 年前> Good idea, way too complex when adding new search engines (no icon URL - no search engine ???) - ever heard of usability?
If you feel adding a new engine is complex, I don't think you're doing it correctly. Right-click a search bar on a webpage and choose 'Add Custom Search' from the menu. Click the Add button or Advanced -> Create to tweak the settings.
> (no icon URL - no search engine ???)
Currently, it does require a valid image to add a new search engine. Maybe it should interpret a blank url as using a generic icon instead of preventing the process from completing.
> ever heard of usability?
Yes I have heard of usability. In fact, most users find this add-on to be very easy to use. Maybe you should consider why you seem to be the exception. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 12717852, 7 年前when I try to install the app, my antivirus puts it in quarantine. not happy

发布于 7 年前You'll have to whitelist the native app with your antivirus software. The app is not digitally signed because it costs money to license a signature, sometimes quite a bit depending on the license length and the company used. The code is available to inspect and build yourself, or you can use the Manual method of importing your search engines which doesn't require the native app.
