  • How to add a search engine manually to Firefox. (No, not via add ons)

    How to add a search engine manually to Firefox?
    For example, what should I do add a custom search engine? It is not available via add-ons. When I go to the search page, Firefox doesn't detect it and it doesn't prompt me or allow me to add it as a search provider. I am looking for options similar to that in Chromium browser.
    let's say for instance, if I want to add redhat bugzilla to my search providers, I can go to search settings and just add https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=%s
    Is there any similar option available in Firefox?

    I use these;
    '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-to-search-bar/ Add to Search Bar]''' {web link}
    Make any pages' search functionality available in the Search Bar
    '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/context-search/ Context Search]''' {web link}
    Expands the context menu's 'Search for' item into a list of
    installed search engines, allowing you to choose the engine
    you want to use for each search.
    '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchthissite/ SearchThisSite]''' {web link}
    Allows you to search the website currently viewed with
    the website's internal search engine (and not the default
    FF search engine or an external engine)

    You can also add any search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:

    Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field.

  • How to add Custom Search Engines to Search Bar

    In the past I managed to add a 'Custom Search Engine' to Firefox's 'Search Bar' (Windows Version) by just right-clicking that site's own 'search bar' and choosing 'Add to search bar'. I had no third party plugin installed to do this. It was provided by Firefox itself.
    Or am I mixing up this feature with Google's 'Add Custom Search Button' ?
    Anyhow, is there a way to add a 'Custom Search Engine' to Firefox's 'Search Bar' from any website, WITHOUT having to:
    * install an add-on (like: Add to Search Bar 2.0)
    * acquire search engines on 'mycroft.mozdev.org'
    * acquire search engines from 'Manage/Add Search Engines' from the drop-down menu in the search bar ?
    Thanks!

    Just made this [http://www.tobtu.com/customsearch.php custom search creator] to do this since I couldn't find one either.
    Although I wouldn't trust a stranger so here's the hard way:
    Install Apache (lamp/wamp whatever) or get free web hosting from some site.
    blah.html:
    <a onclick="window.external.AddSearchProvider('http://localhost/blah.xml');">blah</a>
    blah.xml:<br />
    <br />
    <pre><nowiki><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/">
    <ShortName>Blah</ShortName>
    <Description>Blah blah</Description>
    <Image width="16" height="16">data:image/png;base64,BlahBlahBase64AndUriEncoded%2B%2F</Image>
    <Image width="16" height="16">http://blah/OrJustAUrl.png</Image>
    <Url type="text/html" method="get" template="https://blah/?blah={searchTerms}"/>
    </OpenSearchDescription></nowiki></pre>
    Now go to http://localhost/blah.html and click the link.

  • How do I add a search engine to the search bar from a hard disk file?

    I want to add a search engine to the search bar from an XML file on my hard disk. "Manage Search Engines" from the search bar drop down list only appears to allow adding search engines from web sites.
    Thanks.

    Hmmm. This didn't work. I even re-booted, and Firefox still doesn't show the search engine.
    It was actually an update to an earlier engine, and I foolishly removed the old version rather than just updating it.
    Is there anything elsewhere (eg. the registry) that might be preventing this?

  • In FF4 the opensearch detection does not seem to work. how can I add a search engine , that has an opensearch xml but no plugin?

    if you go to a webpage with an opensearch link tag like "&lt;link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml...." FF3.x highlighted the small arrow left of the search box and you could add the search engine. this does not seem to work in FF4.
    If a searchengine for example for the intranet, does not offer a plugin, just the opnesearch xml, how can one add it to the search engines in FF4?

    You do not get the blue glow on the search engine icon in Firefox 4, but you should still see the "Add ... site" entry in the menu if you click the search engines icon on the Navigation Toolbar.

  • Running Firefox 10.0.2, cannot add new search engines from Mycroft Project. Error message: "you will need a browser which supports opensearch to install this plugin" Please help with steps on how to fix this issue in Firefox, thank you

    Can't add new search engines from Mycroft Project in FF 10.0.2. Error message states: "you will need a browser which supports opensearch to install this plugin"

    You're welcome.
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    *Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • How to Add Meta Search Description & Keywords in Flex3

    How to add meta search data & key words for the page in flex3.
    ms

    Content is what you add to your page. The visible part your visitors can see.
    Keywords have to be added with [a META tag in the HEAD|http://www.google.com/search?q=meta%20tag%20head] of the webpage. That cannot be done in iWeb. You have to edit the published pages with a HTML Editor of your choice.
    It's debatable whether these keywords have any impact on being found by a Search Engine.
    Provide good content.

  • HT3529 How do I send a group text, I have set up groups in my gmail account but can't figure out how to send a group text without adding them all individually

    How do I send a group text message, I have groups set up in my gmail account but can't figure out how to send a group text without adding them all individually ?

    You can use iCloud:
    Step 1. Log into www.icloud.com using your Apple ID.
    Step 2. Click on Contacts and then click the groups ribbon (the red icon with two people) which is on the left-hand page when viewing All Contacts.
    Step 3. The left page changes to a list of Groups (only those groups stored in iCloud are shown). Click the + button at the bottom to add a new group.
    Step 4. Type a name for the new group and press Enter to save it. To change it after this, double-click its entry in the groups list.
    Step 5. To add contacts to the new group, click on the All Contacts group and locate the first person to be added (you can use the search bar to find them quickly).
    Step 6. Drag their name on top of the new group and drop it to add it to that group.
    Step 7. To add more contacts, repeat steps 5 and 6, but you can add multiple contacts at once by pressing Ctrl (on a PC) or Command (on a Mac) and clicking on each contact in the list that you wish to select. Then, drag one of the highlighted names to the new group and they will all be added.
    It's possible to add names to more than one group, and you can create as many groups as you like.
    Step 8. Launch the Contacts app on your device (iPhone, iPod touch or iPad) and you should see the new group appear almost immediately - as long as you have an internet connection.
    Until Apple builds in a function to create groups directly within the Contacts app, this is the best way to do it.

  • Is there a way to stop Firefox from suggesting to add new search engines to my search bar?

    Is there a way to stop Firefox from suggesting to add new search engines to my search bar whenever I visit websites that suggest to us to add their search engines?
    I searched a lot and couldn't find any help. How to stop websites from suggesting to my Firefox search bar to add their search engines? I don't want to add other search engines other than the ones I organized. I don't want my list to look more distracting and longer.

    Firefox doesn't do that. That's either a feature of the website you are visiting or possible Malware on that PC.
    A screenshot of that might be helpful. <br />
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem <br />
    It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.
    Then use the '''Browse ....''' button below the '''''Post a Reply''''' text box to upload the screenshot.

  • How to add a search help for a field in Screen Personas?

       I just started learning to use a Screen Personas, and I want to know how to add a search help for a field.
       I found a property in the help document named "IsLookupSupported". Is it the key?  But I saw it was gray in the field I created, and its value is "false". I could not change it.

    Hi, Tamas,
    I found the reason. The function Z_WEBRFC_READ_DATA_SH had a string concatenation error.
    CONCATENATE '{"results":[{"key": "shlpname", "value": "' l_shlp '"},"key": "fieldname", "value": "' l_field '"}]}' INTO htmldoc-line.
    The correct code is like:
    CONCATENATE '{"results":[{"key": "shlpname", "value": "' l_shlp '"},{"key": "fieldname", "value": "' l_field '"}]}' INTO htmldoc-line.
    Another question is, I can't get any words in Chinese from WebRFC. It returns error when I try it. How can I configure it?

  • How to set another search engine in safari?

    hi all
    can anybody tell how to set another search engine than google/yahoo in safari (e.g. Bing)?
    thank you

    At this stage, I don't know of any workarounds (or available plugins) for Safari for Windows 4.0.4 that allow you to put a different search engine option in the search field.
    The workaround I've been using is to pin a Bing window into my Top Sites.
    You can send an enhancement request to Apple about it. Although it doesn't look to be set up for it, if you bring up your Menu Bar and go "Help > Report bugs to Apple", you can use that bug report form to ask for enhancements. I was skeptical about that to begin with, but apparently they check that for feature enhancement requests, according to the following document. (It's mentioned right down the very bottom.)
