por Tawn, hace 7 añosThis extension has a very unexpected side-effect! Viewing a website's code via Fx developer tools (but not 'View Page Source') shows code added by ContextSearch. That makes website development difficult. A lot of head-scratching before locating the cause of the bizarre looking stuff that I didn't put there. Disable ContextSearch web-ext and it disappears. Switched back to ContextSearch web-ext Lite.
Update: Did not occur with the lite version. Emailed author, and quickly fixed in 1.9.5. Addon has a ton of options; I use only the added context menu search items. If you encounter this issue in 1.9.5, try turning off some options.
The ability to import one-click search engines from Firefox makes setup a breeze. I really like this ext as long as it doesn't interfere with my web dev.

publicado el hace 7 añosWhat you're seeing is called a content script, and it's how addons using the new webextensions API interact with web pages and provide a user interface. It's not a bug or some malicious code.

The Lite version is going to do the same thing but it's been depreciated and no longer receiving updates so I wouldn't recommend using it.

- Se valoró con 5 de 5por Jean-Ricky, hace un mesMUCH MORE than contextual (select text & launch) search
MULTIPLE SITES (not only "whole web" - as Google & the likes) search engines AT ONCE
makes this add-on UNIQUE !
Besides, it is HIGHLY CUSTOMIZABLE : provides
• different KINDS OF OF MENUS (Context/Quick/Toolbar/Sidebar) to launch searches
• many UI CONFIGURATIONS OPTIONS to fit your likes
Just a [very] few points to note :
• too many options (time to master) ?
• missing tool-tips & not always detailed enough ones...
Whatever: unique & powerful

- Se valoró con 1 de 5por LawrenceSan, hace 2 añosI've used many, many different extensions in several different browsers over many years. (I'm an experienced web developer, starting when the web was first invented, and can code several different web languages -- in other words, I'm not a newbie.)
ContextSearch web-ext has the most complicated, buggy preferences interface I've ever seen in a browser extension. I have it running in both Firefox and Chrome, and when it works it's great -- but trying to customize it, add search engines, etc. is a nightmare.
Currently one of the engines in my ContextSearch list is "Google Maps". It works fine in Firefox, but doesn't work at all in Chrome, just leads to a blank page. So I tried exporting it from Firefox into Chrome. Forget it! The export/import features in the extension's customization interface appears to just export the URL for the icon, not for the search engine itself? And some of the gazillion preferences-interface elements for this extension, in both browsers, appear as just solid gray blocks -- regardless of what theme I use, or whether Dark Reader is on or off, or what other interface options I choose for ContextSearch itself. Of the options (including links) that I can see clearly, most of them don't do anything like what their name implies or what I'd expect them to do.
I haven't given up on it because, for the engines I finally get working, it's very useful. But I spend more time wrestling with this interface than with all my other (many) installed extensions put together! - Se valoró con 5 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 5599219, hace 2 años
