- Rated 5 out of 5by The Beard Below My Chin, 7 years agoVery good, convenient. Good number of options. Doesn't interfere with operations.
I've found the 3 trifecta add-ons for convenient and powerful search are
FlagFox (domain info/domain search)
Switch Selection Search (text search)
Image Search Options (reverse image search)
All 3 are Customzable and you can add your own search engines.
Please add javascript/bookmarklet support! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13436854, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Davin, 7 years agoIs there a way to have an option to display the result as an inner popup (tooltip), it's very helpful for translate words. Thanks for a very useful ext.

posted 7 years agoHi and thanks for the review! :) Well, it's not easy to know what would be the correct thing to display in an inner frame for a custom website (The whole page? First result? But what is a result? Not all sites display results in the same way... Custom results if using google translate? It's complicated! :p). That is an interesting idea, though. :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13591768, 7 years agoSowas habe ich die ganze Zeit gesucht und endlich bin ich auf dieses Add-on gestoßen! DANKE!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12817215, 7 years agoExcellent tool to use as a doubleclick dictionary search. Unfortunately when I use my Firefox account to sync extensions my settings aren't synced! I have to add the dictionaries and favicons ...

posted 7 years agoHi! Thanks for the review! :)
You are right, SSS doesn't support Firefox Sync currently. Sorry! I had implemented it but found a bug in Firefox (which I reported here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1423744) that could cause problems if the user's icon images exceed the storage limit, so decided to postpone it. It will come eventually, with the bug or not. ;)
Meanwhile, you can try the "Storage & backup" section and export your settings to a file. Then on the other computer you can import the file. I know... it's not as convenient... I understand your criticism. :)
