- Thanks for making this add-on. It seems to be working rather well, even though it's still a bit rough around the edges. It's interesting to see how some things that seem simple in theory can end up being so complicated, like searching for two or more words at the same time on a webpage. I'm glad I came across this add-on.
I really like having multiple groups, blinking text, hotkeys and the highlighting of found text next to the scrollbar.
However, for the more privacy-minded individuals, it would be necessary to clarify how the permission to "read the text of all open tabs" applies. In my opinion, the add-on should only do this when clicked / activated via the hotkey and only for the site it's activated on, with a clear description of this. Otherwise, some people, myself included, could keep it disabled and only use it when they need to, as "text" can be anything ranging from passwords to banking info.
Also, even tough I'm guessing "new" add-ons have more restrictions, would there be a way to integrate the add-on window into a bottom bar like the default search? Having to always click the icon or use the hotkey to see searched terms is just not as easy as always seeing it when activated, in a neat narrow bottom bar.
edit: I don't have the issue where the highlight stays put while text scrolls by, it just moves with the text how it's supposed to (FF 67.0.4 atm).
The only problem I've seen is searching on a long webpage (a law with lots of text) - prompting Firefox to show an error saying the add-on is slowing down the browser etc.
Furthermore, for some people who might not get how this add-on works, you type in your first term, hit Enter or click the "+" (plus) sign, you type in the number of characters between the searched terms (where it says 50 in the screenshot) and click Find. This is the part I was missing when I first started using it.开发者回应
发布于 5 年前Please, don't be concerned about your privacy with this addon.
You can always check its code located at Homepage link, where you won't be able to find anything in the least suspicious. All it does is search the terms and highlight them on the page; no external requests or even saving your searches on your own machine.
If you look up the 'read the text of all open tabs' permission, you'll see that it just means you allow the extension to use 'find' API, which searches for the text on the page and nothing else.

And it can only perform such logic at exactly the moment you click the extension button.
New extensions are indeed more concerned about privacy and security.
Also, thanks for the suggestions on the user interface and the description.
And sorry for such a late reply. - 评分 5 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 14614782, 6 年前
