Hi there..hope you are doing well

https://www.dogpile.com/ https://www.alltheinternet.com/ https://www.lukol.com/ https://www.onesearch.com/

Also One more request

Is there a way to search on all engines together at one click. If yes Please let me know how to setup and If no I would urge to add this feature as it will definitely saves a lot of time

Looking forward to hearing from you

Thanks

benyaminl commented 1 year ago

No there are none, you must manually put it one by one...

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

What is the problem with those engines? Do they use a session token?

Yes, there are two ways.

  1. place all engines you want to search at once in a folder and perform a folder search.
  2. highlight multiple engines in the search engines manager ( ctrl+click usually ) and right-click -> New Multisearch. It will combine all selected engines into a single "engine"

Just to elaborate on my first post, how have you been adding engines so far? The most common way is to right-click the search bar on each of those websites and select "Add To ContextSearch" from the context menu. Another way would be to visit mycroftproject.com and install engines by clicking the ContextSearch icon displayed next to each engine in the list. Or you can manually add engines from the search engines manager

Thanks so much for the reply. Just to update I have managed to add 3 search engines through mycroftproject.com like the way you explained but Not able to add this one https://www.lukol.com/

can you please guide how i can do it manually?

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

I'm not seeing an issue. What exactly isn't working when you try to add the engine?

Just add manually with https://www.lukol.com/s.php?q=%s

Do you have the context menu enabled? CS Options -> Enable searching via the context menu + Enable the context-menu item "Add Custom Search" on INPUT elements

MintMain21 commented 1 year ago

Alternatively, you could add it using the Taskbar pop-up.

Screenshot from 2022-10-06 00-47-45 Yeah i already have it enable. Maybe some kind of bug is there

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

Using the latest Chromium, I'm not seeing any issues. You might try opening the context menu twice. Sometimes the menu is displayed before the menu entry is built. If that's not it, I'll do some troubleshooting with you.

I'm still wondering whats up with the Add to ContextSearch menu not showing up. I wonder if it could be a conflict with another addon. You seem to have several with context menus. It'd be nice to sort that out.

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

Yayy..Got it working the multi engine. All Thanks to you

Yeah Sure Bro.. What can i do for you? Let's figure this out

I have already tried disabling these two extension which i was using before your extension. It didn't work

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

Yeah Sure Bro.. What can i do for you? Let's figure this out

  1. What browser / OS are you on?
  2. Have you tried disabling ALL other extensions?
  3. How are you bringing up the context menu? ( right-click I assume, but better check )
  4. Do you get a context menu entry for this addon if you highlight a word and open?
rakitanc commented 1 year ago

I am using Chrome browser Version 103.0.5060.114 (Official Build) (64-bit) Pop Os linux

Bro..Doing some troubleshooting i managed to find out..It's an extension that is conflicting as after disabling all of them and running your extension..It Worked

How to find which one is conflicting?

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

Found the culprit

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/link-klipper-extract-all/fahollcgofmpnehocdgofnhkkchiekoo

why this can be conflicting?

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

I'll dig through the source code and see if there's a workaround

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

That addon appears to capture all right-click mousedown events and doesn't allow them to propagate. So any other addons using the mousedown event on the right mouse button might not work.

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

Oh okay brother..Just to use your extension i will remove this one

Btw i had some improvement request for the extension if you can implement it would be mean a lot

Screenshot from 2022-10-07 18-51-11 On this new tab page ..the context option comes this way. Is there a way to fix it? Because i use it a lot

Screenshot from 2022-10-07 22-28-44 I noticed it happens here as well

Screenshot from 2022-10-07 22-45-30

I want like this

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

That's odd you're getting a two-tier menu with only a single item in the 2nd tier. That should not be happening. I may need a copy of your config to see if there's a setting conflict happening.

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

How do i send it and where to find it?

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

CS Options -> Export ( Left pane ). You can drag & drop it here into your comments

Bro can't share json in comments😞 Screenshot from 2022-10-08 19-22-43

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

Had to use this online service

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

Ah, I should have said to zip it first. That works, though

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

On some tabs that aren't really webpages, you might see the menu labeled Search With vs Search for [searchTerms], but you should not be seeing that extra tier in the menu. I'm trying your profile, and nothing looks off. Does it do the same thing with other addons disabled? I can't really think of any reason why that would happen, unless maybe there's a bug with chrome causing a conflict between addons.

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

I have to check it out bro as its such a tedious and frustrating process doing the disabling extensions and see which one is the problem

But before that i have other queries to ask..So let's fix that first LOL

Screenshot from 2022-10-09 03-07-32

I don't know what setting i have changed that i can't seem to figure out but doing right click enables this pop up everytime, how to fix this?

*that you see on the left

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

CS Options -> Quick Menu -> General -> uncheck Enable searching via popup menu

Hey bro..So just got done with this. Tried with all extensions disabled and the problem still persist. Please find a solution for this

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

I installed the latest chrome official on linux mint, but I can't get that bug. Have you tried other browsers to see if the bug is there too? I haven't seen anything like that in FF, Chrome, chromium, Waterfox, Vivaldi, or Edge

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

Working good on firefox😞

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

Having the same problem on Chrome incognito with just Your extension

rakitanc commented 1 year ago

My chrome version is this 103.0.5060.114 (Official Build) (64-bit)

ssborbis commented 1 year ago

I'm having trouble finding that version to test. I tested using the latest stable version ( 106.0.5249.119-1 ) and didn't have any issues. You may want to try updating Chrome and see if that fixes it.

Please re-open this thread if you are still having issues with adding engines.
