Exporting ContextSearch to search.json.mozlz4 doesn't work #717

Hi guys:

I'm trying to export ContextSearch settings via Advanced -> export to Firefox search and saving it to my profile's search.json.mozlz4 and after restarting Firefox, there are no changes in the searchbar, the same providers show up. If I delete search.json.mozlz4, Firefox default search providers (such as DuckDuckGo) show up, but even after that, if I export Context search settings to search.json.mozlz4, there are no changes on the search bar. I remember I somehow exported my searchplugins folder xml files to search,json.mozlz4 (years ago, I don't remember how I did that), in case that's helpful information.

Thanks for your support.

It's a bug in the latest code. Are you sideloading? It might be working in the last release but I'm not sure. I have a fix that I'll get to the master branch soon.
