Description from extension meta
Search for the selected text in search engines
Image from store
Description from store
With this extension you can easily search for text you have selected. When some text is selected you can left click the selected text to get a popup where you can choose a search engine to search with.
In the options page you can customize the look of the menu, which mouse button that should activate the menu, which search engines to show, and a lot of other things.
**************************************
When you install this extension you will get a warning that this extension can:
"Access your data on all websites."
This is needed because the code for the popup-menu needs to be added to every website for it to work.

Changelog:
0.8.57
- Fix mycroft integration.
- Add an additional source for search engine icons that is used if the default source does not have an icon.
0.8.56
- Added special search engine marker for sites requiring encodings other than UTF-8. Simply append {SPECIALENCODING} to the end of the search engine url. This enables the feature and the browser should be able to auto detect the correct encoding.

- (2021-07-18) This is already possible to do without this extension. But I can only search with Google. So having it for searching selections with other search engines besides Google is useful. Thank you for creating this. Works great!
- (2021-07-17) 徐天培: 同类型最强大扩展，设置界面不太友好，容易错过。
- (2021-07-16) Alex Paul: Одно из самых лучших расширений. Очень давно искал такое..

- (2021-05-27) Jessica Gray: Every time you add a search engine the settings change and i have to rechange them all to the settings i like.
- (2021-05-03) 2000りそな: ワード検索のときに右クリックを省けるのは本当に便利 設定がかなり細かいので、gigafreeさんの解説を参考にしました
- (2021-04-26) Alan DJIGSTAR: Абсолютно лучшее поисковое дополнение для VIVALDI Хром! Перепробовал всё! Лучше было только dragNdrop на старом Firefox, где можно было стащив текст в сторону, сразу искать фоном на заданных сайтах. А тут еще и поисковый запрос по сайтам встроенный! Можно найти на Рутор, Кинопоиск или Рутрекер, ссылки на который даже на Музиле не всегда работали. БРАВО! АВТОР МОЛОДЕЦ!
- (2021-04-07) Ivan Qu: 真心强大， 设计构思巧妙， 类似功能扩展里最好用的一个 如果能加上图片搜索就更好了
- (2021-04-06) Android User: DevTools Protocol " chrome " cannot be used. I had to make a system to search history using HTML with this extension.
- (2021-03-20) Oleksander Dudar: Very good so far, please add reverse image search
- (2021-03-05) Ziv XK: Amazing ！！！！！！！！！！！
- (2021-02-19) Matsuri Wolfgang: 一开始很懵不会用，探索了下后，发现极为好用。
- (2021-02-14) WP Z: It turns to be a series of numbers in the POST method when you search it in multi-languages.
- (2021-01-26) Osmar Arteaga: This doesn't work for google chrome isn't it? The is no way I can add any good search engine like amazon, it seems to be built only for Firefox.
- (2021-01-17) Stefane Guevremont: This is THE most functional search tool Extension for Google Chrome. My only comment, it lacks user friendliness. It took me a considerable amount of time to figure out the intricacies of this extension. Overall, it does everything I was looking to do: - Automatic popup menu with direct search of highlighted text - Adding and Customization of New Search Pages - Middle-click to Open Search Pages in a background tab - Customizable hotkeys for each search tool Two words: Well done!
- (2020-11-16) Sammy: Fantastic extension awesome job whoever made it. One slight touch that would make it perfect and that is if you add a SCROLLBAR within the menu of all the added website as search engines rather than relying on Google Chrome's scrollbar! I mean when I choose Styling and then I change it to whatever style available Icons only, Animations or Animations 2 etc..., I can't scroll up or down as it cuts off part of the menu of my added websites when I activate the menu of these websites in a narrow corner of a page therefore, I highly recommend you to add a scrollbar within inside that menu of added websites ASAP. Thank you very much for your time.
- (2020-11-13) Gregorio de Mojeca: A fantastic extension, easy to use (even if not sure of which search inquiry style/initials to use, one can test them till one finds the one that works. Can even use it for shrtcuts to translation sites by setting each desired translation direction (En to Sp) ahead of time. Therefore once at page no need to fiddle with long drop-down choices. And many more personalized tweaks can be accomplished. A 'Thank You' to its creator.
- (2020-10-07) Po-Huai Cheng: Handy for searing instead cumbersome copying.
- (2020-09-27) Михаил Савин: Highly customizable.
- (2020-09-24) Acid: SUBLIME extension. Allows to add any search query, works like a charm. Thank you for the work and effort you put into this.
- (2020-09-06) Davide Ferrandini: Ottime idee, un po' spartane le opzioni ma mi è piaciuta la personalizzazione delle impostazioni. La ricerca contestuale e la ricerca tramite testo funzionano bene, ma non funziona bene l'aggiunta di nuovi motori di ricerca direttamente della barra di navigazione e se funzionasse sarebbe fantastico. Non sono riuscito a far funzionare la ricerca da testo con le icone, che anche quella sarebbe da 5 stelle se funzionasse per la praticità e l'eleganza. Spero che risolverete questi bug presto perchè l'idea merita tanto, la messa in pratica un po' meno.
- (2020-09-05) Andrey Podzemsky: Сделайте темную тему для поиска из ярлыка браузера >>> Make a dark theme for search from a browser shortcut <<<
- (2020-08-11) Aaron: It's a wonderful tool ! hope could be have Chinese or another interface could be use. thank for ur coding!

- (2020-06-29) Waleed Khalid: great extension
- (2020-04-16) Hanjeong Jo: 고맙습니다.
- (2020-04-11) fish fat: 有没有大佬，求汉化。 Seek Chinese version,Thank you.
- (2020-04-08) Birgit Jensen: One of my essential productivity tools. A quick double click with the mouse and I'm a split second away from my favorite search engines or websites. You can customize which sites to use and modify the app's behavior to suit your personal needs. Highly recommended!
- (2020-03-26) George Magnisalis: I am amazed by this extension. It works flawlessly and save me lots of time when browsing. it is my absolute best extension and the reason I use Chrome
- (2020-03-23) 阿部伸治: これがやりたかった。いちいち左クリック押すのが面倒だったので便利です。欲を言えば、文章コピーの項目も設定できるとさらに良いですね。
- (2020-03-19) Rubén García: I'm having problem to use the extension in chrome 80 and above, all the setting s are gone and even if search engines appear in the menu, search is not working.

- (2020-02-25) lakira plus: Super great!!! solved my problem of switching between multiple search engines, thanks to the developers!!!
- (2020-02-23) Kevin Wei: The best, way better than other search extensions!

- (2020-02-12) Wen Wen Liang: 我需要中文设置，谁汉化下！！！谢谢！！！
- (2020-02-08) Stephen Andrews: I LOVE this extension. I have one gripe. It says on the Overview "Access your data on all websites." -This is needed because the code for the popup-menu needs to be added to every website for it to work. I REALLY want to get the guys at the office to install this because it would help with productivity so much. But the powers that be a security crazy. I don't even want to use the popup feature! I'd love if there were a slimmed down version of this extension that wouldn't need that permission.
- (2020-02-06) Dmitry Novikov: Been using this for years, but forgot to rate it :) Best of all of the kind.
- (2020-02-06) Mark K: You are my hero! This is so, so, so useful and so convenient! I use it to show a dozen of search engines in an icons-only popup on middle click. And it saves so much trouble of having to go through right-click menu's submenues, and makes the whole experience so much more pleasant! Thank you so much!
- (2020-01-09) Larbi Ouchene: Very useful extension, i love it !
- (2020-01-05) Boris Raifler: Excellent extension! Thank you!
- (2020-01-04) Gohi: 冷门但非常牛逼的搜索引擎拓展
- (2019-12-04) Chil Cooper: very good,just need to learn how to use :)
- (2019-11-20) Em vi em: For me, compared to Select Search, this extension (Selection Search) has the main advantage of syncing of current search engine settings. But I noticed that this extension might be causing a freeze. For instance, I select a word to search it in an online dictionary in a new tab. But when the new search tab opens and starts to load (and even after it is loaded) the tab content is frozen (cant't scroll or click on anything). To test, I repeated this many times and tried the same with Select Search, and it didn't cause the freezing, which I suspect Selection Search causes.
- (2019-10-29) Pablo Escobar: Almost perfect extension, with thouroghly adjusted hotkeys it simplifies worklow a lot. Thank you, been looking for it for so long

I loved this extension very much! My problem is that Malwarebytes shows a warning when I enable this extension. I copied a few lines from the log: -Website Data- Category: Trojan Domain: ibcracks.com IP Address: 35.213.190.144 Port: 80 Type: Outbound File: C:\Browsers\Slimjet\slimjet.exe I had to disable almost all my extensions to find which one causes this warning. Last year in december I used Malwarebytes for a while and everything was OK. I installed Malwarebytes again a few weeks ago. Since that I always got this warning everytime I visited a webpage. So I think something happened between last December and the 12th of February this year. And after a few days of trying to get rid of this trojan I got a ransomware. Certainly I switched the computer off immediately and now I am recovering it. What is the connection between this extension and ibcracks.com? - (2021-03-02, v:0.8.56) Konstantinos Nastou: Netflix

Instead of having to click (or tab to) the search engine I want to search with after typing in a search phrase, please consider mapping the number keys (1, 2, 3 etc...) to the corresponding search engines added (to function as "select and enter"). - (2021-01-27, v:0.8.56) 李立峰: This extension for Safari?

It used to work (maybe a few week ago). But it doesn't now. Haven't changed that entry on the extension's Option page. And even if I add another COPY entry, this new one still doesn't work. I hope that it would work. Please kindly suggest if it's only my issue. Thank you for your attention 🙂 - (2021-01-20, v:0.8.56) 24_Neon: Hello.

This week automaticly selction search popups with circular menu - can't find the disable option to this. I tried and played a view days with it, but it is not for me. Perhaps with submenues it could be an option - but than you should offer pre-defined icons to choose or giving some links to not changing http-sources online. But anyway this extension is really so helpfull to me - Thank you so much for your power you spent into it !!! Happy new year and stay healthy !! - (2021-01-06, v:0.8.56) b bk: Kiwi browser

Hello, thank you for this lovely extension, it has been one of my all time favorites for a long time. This may be a bit of a nuisance for you but I can't seem to be able to add "tureng.com" and "sozluk.gov.tr", which are both dictionaries, to my list somehow. I think there may be something with the variables or the technical process to it that I don't know. Could you please provide search URLs for those sites for me? Also, I think I used to add engines directly from mycroftproject once, it seems like it's not the case now, is it going to be fixed or do I misremember? - (2020-10-23, v:0.8.56) Konstantinos Nastou: Pinterest?

In Google Maps, when clicking in the text area, the "add new engines" seems to popup almost all the time. Also, is there an option to disable the "Ctrl + Alt + Click"? I have other global hotkeys assigned with other programs, and find the popup "add new engines" opens at inopportune times. Or perhaps, is there a way to reassign the "Ctrl + Alt + Click" to something else? Cheers! - (2020-08-27, v:0.8.56) Christian Waits: One thing to improve
This extension is really great. It works very well and is highly user customizable. I have added many search engines and they all work perfectly. Also, unlike other similar ones, it is maintained and continues to be updated, which is essential. I especially want to thank the developer. And additionally I have a suggestion of something that can be improved: When typing a search in the toolbar popup, one usually looks for the same things more than once. Therefore, it would be very useful if the suggestions that are automatically displayed included the previous terms that one has already searched for. For that, the application should obviously keep a history of the user's searches. I don't know if that will be possible, but it would be great. The history might not be saved, for example, if one searches for several paragraphs or long texts (since there is not much chance of repeating the exact search), but it would be great if it was saved when one searches for a single word or a small phrase. And the next time that word or phrase appears as a suggestion. In that case, for example, one could activate one's own previous search suggestions and at the same time deactivate Google's generic suggestions (which at least for me are quite useless). I hope you can consider what I'm suggesting. Anyway, the addon is really superb, thank you very much for that and keep up the good work. - (2020-08-27, v:0.8.56) Stefane Guevremont: Is there a way to disable the "Ctrl + Alt + Click"?

Hello i don't remember if i told you that already or not, but please add a way that if i select the second row, and i click new, you add it there and not at the end. about importing exporting, is there a way that if i use 2 different account i can import the setting of user a to b, where b has already different things. so the point is to add all from a to b and the remove things from a that are not necessary, instead of doing all that from 0 again. - (2020-08-11, v:0.8.56) Rizwan H: Not able to add search engines in submenu

you can add a keyboard shortcut to select the which search engine to use after entering the keyword in the input text for ex. if I have 5 search engines and I want to search in the 10th one, either I have to use the tab button which I have to click multiple times to reach there or I have to use the mouse which becomes tricky bcz of hand movements. So if there is shortcut to directly click on the desired search engine without tab button or a mouse - (2020-07-31, v:0.8.56) Jon: Wall of text selected, not able to deselect.
Usually when selecting text on pages, you have to move above or below the "line" on which the selected text is placed in order to click off and deselect the text. So if I accidentally select a wall of text - suppose the entire site - there is no way to click off and deselect text. The only resort is to refresh the web page. Would be nice if I could click anywhere on the page, as long as not clicking directly on selected text, in order to deselect. - (2020-07-22, v:0.8.56) Zhan Arno: Change the icon in the toolbar.

Hi there, this is a great tool, but when using an hotkey like enter (shows return instead of enter), it doens't work. Maybe important to know: I've also tried it with a different tool, which does show enter instead of return and works without any issue. Hopefully you'll be able to make this change, then I'll be very happy, as I'm using search very frequent for my work :) Best regards, Patrick Oort - (2020-05-17, v:0.8.56) Mitchell Dickerman: Auto copy selected text

This is a great extension, but I have some advice here. 1. please add "press esc button to close toobar popup", sometimes you input the search query halfway, don't want to search it, it would be convenient. 2. when the search query is simplified Chinese type, and the queary length >= 3, cannot use the hotkey via toolbar popup. 3. please keep the search query in the toolbar popup, because you would search it by different serch engine, so next time you don't need to type it. - (2020-02-03, v:0.8.53) kawa saky: Latest version broke the {%+s}

(Chrome Browser Version 79.0.3945.130; Selection Search Version 0.8.53) I have exactly the same problem as some others have already described: "..I noticed that the extension might be causing a freeze. For instance, I select a word to search it in an online dictionary in a new tab. But when the new search tab opens and starts to load (and even after it is loaded) the tab content is frozen (cant't scroll or click on anything). To test, I repeated this many times and tried the same with Select Search, and it didn't cause the freezing, which I suspect Selection Search causes.....The freeze lasts for several seconds." This behaviour has been going on for about 2 months now, despite always up-to-date versions and even after completely reinstalling the Chrome Browser and default settings in Selection Search and deactivating all other extensions. Please solve the problem - thank you very much! Kind regards
