• (2020-01-13) Ramiro Charriol: Get's the job done
• (2019-01-26) Teran Briggs: Used this for about 5 minutes and got frustrated with it. The search functionality was not working for quite some time. It is case sensitive by default (unless you hunt for the setting) and the words are only highlighted on the page with the same color you use when selecting text. The screen does not jump to the next results so you have to scroll down the page yourself. Very annoying, download one of the other regex extensions.
• (2017-10-01) Bruno Adele: [French] L'auteur n'a pas honte de dire de ne pas tenir compte des anciens commentaire. Il ne veut même pas assumer que son application est complètement inefficace !! Je conseille fortement l'application concurrente "Chrome Regex Search". [English] The author is not ashamed to say that he ignores the old commentaries. He does not even want to assume that its application is completely ineffective !! I strongly advise the another application "Chrome Regex Search"
• (2017-09-03) Brandon Richardson: I believe this extension is no longer being supported, which is evident in its usability. I've noticed several issues, including word boundary issues, an awful UI, and the extension's markup injected into the web page remaining after the extension closes. If you're trying to match a pattern against an inline piece of text spread over multiple elements, forget about it. This extension should either be updated or removed from the store altogether.
• (2017-07-06) Rashi Abramson: Can we have multiline support added?
• (2017-06-13) Jadenity (Androit): Works great, use it every day!!
• (2017-05-29) Mohammad G.M: Great works but Unfortunately, not replace.
• (2017-04-23) Igor Cryptor: Does its job. It would be great to highlight lines where regex matched on the scrollbar as simple search by Ctrl+F does. Especially great that this extension is open source.
• (2017-03-20) Dave Land: This review is from 2017-03-20, so that the author doesn't mislead you about how old the reviews are. This extension doesn't scroll found items into view, it just highlights them. Then it's up to you to scroll around and find them. Not worth installing, hardly worth reviewing, except to save others the time to remove it.
• (2017-03-16) fanis deligiannis: Very good, haven't seen any major bugs other than the fact that the option website (for case sensitivity default) does not seem to work. Other than that, a little suggestion i'd like to give is making a shortcut for opening the search window, such as CTRL+SHIFT+F or even an adjustable one
• (2017-01-25) It doesn't work.
• (2016-11-12) Matias Garcia Gudin: No funciona. it doesn't work.
• (2016-10-02) Juan José: Simple but works well. It would be great if it could also find in all tabs at once. It would be better if it had the option to disable case sensitiviness easily. And be able to still use chrome shortcuts with the box opened (such as ctrl+tab). And I have an idea for this extension or a new one: While searching remove all lines except the lines that contain the desired words.
• (2016-09-30) Swaroop P: Doesn't work at all. Can't search anything forget about RegEx.
• (2016-09-29) Ji Zhang: Worked after restart chrome Took one star off because it didn't work before I restarted chrome. Almost deleted the extension. It should give some sort of warning.
• (2016-09-28) Ilfrin: Très utile et simple d'utilisation. (Pensez a redémarrer chrome avant de l'utiliser sinon il ne fonctionnera pas)
• (2016-08-08) Fabian Enrique Gutierrez: it doesn't work
• (2016-08-04) Michael Lawler: So great! Love it! FYI, as stated, you need to restart chrome before it will work!!! open tab chrome://restart and profit! Only request would be to have the scrollbar also highlight/represent matches.
• (2016-07-21) Tanner Means: Works great
• (2016-07-10) Valentin Tihomirov: That is pretty, asynchronous and fast search which makes it useful for the large texts. However, aside from not marking the outline on the scroll bar, it marks the matches in the text by corrupting your HTML. This makes the items that I am looking for non-clickable. What is worse, the markup fails to be revoked when the search bar is closed. The only way you have to clean up the garbage is to type some text into the regex window. I however expanded the extension with Close button https://github.com/gsingh93/regex-search/issues/34#issuecomment-231579966 which both revokes the markup and closes the popup.
• (2016-07-03) Jeff Appis: Doesn't work
• (2016-06-09) Jin M: Doesn't work. Doesn't search anything, not even regular text.
• (2016-05-16) Burak Ogan Mancarci: Need to have an instruction to restart the browser since many people seems to think that it's not working.
• (2016-05-11) Chlupatá Žárovka: Superb. Same (pre)quick filter would be appreciated.
• (2016-05-11) Seck Wei Lim: NOTE: NEED TO RESTART CHROME BEFORE IT WORKS. It works good so far.
• (2016-05-10) Pavel Lishin: No clear indication that no results were found, or that it's currently searching/is done searching - makes it very annoying on long pages.
