posted 8 years agoHey there!
Sorry to hear that I'm not explaining how to add engines very well. :(
SSS only includes a few search engines as (working) examples. You can import all search engines you use in your browser, for example, and then you can even add custom engines. Everything is explained under the instructions section of the add-on's options page. If you feel confused after reading those, please feel free to contact me at daniel.rb.lobo+sss@gmail.com and I'll try to understand the problem and explain as best as I can. :)
I can't add your browser engines automatically without user intervention because of browser limitations, and I don't add more than the basic 4 because then people would start asking for many many many engines that are not present, when they really should add those that they use. :)
I hope this makes sense!
All the best,
Daniel

- Rated 5 out of 5by atata, 3 months agoIt's great.
However, as the number of search engines I want to use increases, it becomes too large to fit them all.
It would be great if it had a multi-level structure using folders like bookmarks. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17966372, 3 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Leviii, 6 months agoAmazing addon, I have bunch of search engines saved and it prevents me from routing everything through google. Also I have integrated it with everything windows search app which makes it even more useful. Currently development is stalled but it's become irreplaceable for me.

- Rated 5 out of 5by mnaonmf, 6 months agoThis extension is absolutely fantastic—the intuitive yet powerful interface, the deep customization options, and the full backup and restore features make it a joy to use. Truly impressive work. You've covered it all (except an Android version 😭 though I know there's a fork I can use instead).

- Rated 5 out of 5by Aissa Jessus, 7 months agoVery effect and clean. Easy and quick to setup and add new search sites and customize them.
I am currently using it heavily for cross sites search and routine custom searches.

- Rated 5 out of 5by RichardJT, 9 months agoGood morning , i hope you're well. So, more default SEs nice, but easy enough to add. Sweet, sweet ride!!! Stays open when other tasks need attention; not like bill's menus.
6/5 bc this your only add-on.
7/5 bc i can't see a way to donate for your exceptional effort. C u on github, hopefully.
