Should offer an integration option with Translate Web Page. - Rated 3 out of 5by Maurice, 8 months ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by Anakunda, 2 years agoVery usfeul addon but with cumbersome path to configuration panel (need to open all addons, search down for SSS and use manage options). A handy control panel icon directly on the pop-up would considerably improve the UX.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Sans Undertale, 4 years agoStill decent, but I use and prefer Context Search Web-Ext

- Rated 3 out of 5by pelle, 5 years agoThis would be great if it could just use the search engines already set up in your Firefox settings.

posted 5 years agoHey, but you can! ;)
In the options page, below the list of engines, you can see "Load browser search engines". When you find the file with Firefox's search engines on your machine (there are instructions right beside the button), SSS can import them.
NOTE: SSS could use the Firefox search engines directly (and it may in the future) but that's more limited since it wouldn't get access to the search urls and the way the tabs would open would be controlled by Firefox, not your SSS settings.
Cheers!

The site that gets the favicon icons has retired. I could not get the icons for:
www dot alfred dot com
www dot henle dot de
www dot halleonard do com

Could you add a feature where I could open a set of searches that are within two separators? As I usually group similar searches between two separators. Thanks.
A huge time saver addon to do many searches very quickly to google maps, youtube, google translate, and many more.
You can even add any site to search if you want.
AMAZING ADDON!
A tip on creating and adding your own custom searches by doing a search on a site that you are interested in. Do the search on the site you want with a keyword of your choice and then replace this keyword with {searchTerms}
Example: en dot wikipedia dot org slash wiki Special:Search?search={searchTerms}
This way, there are many sites where you can easily create your own custom searches and add them to the ones you already have available by default with this great addon Swift Selection Search.
Many thanks to the developer for this addon.Developer response
