    Great extension! I use it constantly. But any way to make it work on Thunderbird too?

    Thanks so much. It is a pity that it doesn't support post searches

    I just wanted to make this exact add-on, did some searching first to see if it already exists, and you saved me the work. :)
    Thanks for the add-on.

    Thanks! Feel free to contribute to the development if you have any suggestions for future features!

    I love this add-on so much, but I don't understand why are you interested in access my data now.
    So, I didn't update it.
    What kind of data the extension will access? Why?
    Thanks.

    I have created a section on the add-ons listing where I explain the different permission requirements. Let me assure you that this add-on doesn't "phone home". I couldn't care less about which sites you access. :) You can also check out the code if you don't trust me. I hope you'll enjoy the new features if you find the courage to trust me! :)

    A great replacement for SmartSearch, thank you!

    Please add searching for hovered word!
    Also, currently it clashes with other default items in context menu which start with "S". Could we have a configurable hotkey, so that I can just right click, and then adjust my preferred search with keyboard?

    The WebExtensions API doesn't support adding hotkeys to context menus AFAIK. IF and when this will support it, I will happily add it. Thanks!

    I mark the word "test" in https://www.google.de/search?q=test and search with the extension afterwards. It is working.
    Then I mark a word in the iframe of https://codepen.io/GBora/pen/VLYyzY and in the context menu it still looks for the word "test". The same thing, if I enter an editor with the address
    data: text / html, <html contenteditable> and type in xxxxx there and then search in the context menu, it is still looking for "test"
    The same also when i search something on site https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/context-search-we/

    With Firefox 59 all these things works correct. Could you please fix it in your wonderful extension?
    EDIT: post on https://github.com/NumeriusNegidius/Context-Search/issues/55

    This should be fixed in version 2.1.

    Good replacement for Smart Search add-on but It would be perfect if it could search without having to first select the text/hyperlink like Smart Search could.

    Edit: It's working perfectly like I wanted. Thank you!!!!

    very good！
    But I still have a question. How to show the search engine icon (like your sample picture)？
    My FF contextmenu icon is empty.
    Thank you！

    This should be supported by default, as long as the website has a favicon.
