Add custom search engine by Tom Schuster

Rated 5 out of 5
by EvaUnit02, 5 years agoWas alarmed to learn that Mycroft Project search bar options no longer works, while recreating my Firefox profile. Apparently Mozilla is depreciating Opensearch XML addon support? That's dumb.

Found this extension and it does the job of creating custom search bar options perfectly. Highly recommended!

tip for those writing custom github searches:
wrap your search placeholder (%s) in double quotes - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18778903, 6 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Anton D, 7 months agothis is the oldest (longest-used) add-on in my Firefox which is still installed.
I remember having a bliss to use this add-on instead of manually editing XMLs and starting a local web server so Firefox recognizes them.
I don't have it enabled all the time but from time to time I still enable it to add a search engine. A shame this is a hassle to do in Firefox without, other browsers I use don't have such problems. Also it's sad there is no easy way to edit a search after it's added, without re-adding it with the edits.
