Features & Capabilities

{find+} is a powerful Chrome extension that significantly enhances the native find-in-page feature by supporting JavaScript regular expressions. Designed primarily for developers, it enables searching web pages or documents with complex regex patterns, facilitating precise text matching beyond simple keywords.

Key features include find-and-replace functionality, the ability to copy regex matches to the clipboard, and storing frequently used expressions for quick reuse. The extension mimics the native CTRL-F tool but adds much-needed power and flexibility for examining large logs, stack traces, or structured text files. Note that {find+} is best suited for static pages and may not perform well on dynamic content or very large pages.

User Reviews

Users repeatedly praise regex search, usefulness for large pages, and persistent highlighting, while common criticisms focus on the find keyword hijack, UI visibility bugs, unreliable hotkeys, and occasional crashes on large sites.

Pros

Regex search support enabling complex in-page queries.
Very helpful for navigating large data dumps and long pages.
Highlights all matches and keeps highlights visible for review.
Easy to use with a straightforward interface.

Cons

Hijacks the word find in the address bar with no option to disable.
Search box or results panel disappears after certain interactions and does not stay visible across tabs.
Hotkey usage is inconsistent with reports of confusion and not working on some systems (notably Linux).
Crashes on some very large sites.

Recent reviews

Thanks for writing this extension. It looks quite simple but I had tried a bunch of other extensions like this and they all seemed to make weirdly inconvenient UI decisions. This one does it all in a way *more like you would expect it should* - if you have a regular expression already saved from previous use, you can merely click the toolbar icon to apply it to the current page and the highlights come up immediately. Other extensions made you do multiple clicks for no good reason. Seems like an example of "it takes complexity to make things truly simple"

不错，可以搜索网页内多个关键词的并集或交集

I keep thinking it was Ctrl+UpArrow+F was driving me mad. This is for other dummies like me, it's actually Ctrl+SHIFT+F and yeah it works. Might be a bug, search window disappears after some various interactions such as toggling between tabs or simply selecting or clicking something on the search page.

Is {find+} Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

{find+} requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
