Extension summary

BOOSTER PRO is a brand new selection search tool with awesome additional features!

In the Context menu tab you can manually add menus to your right-click context menu to search for selected text in different search engines, make sure you change the search query with either SELECTION or the usual %s. The order of the search engines in the right-click menu can be rearranged by dragging and dropping the menus. There is also a check-box for hiding and displaying menus at a given time. The red button with dash allows you to remove menus. You can set your current setting as default by clicking the Make default, and load anytime by clicking Load default.

The Bookmarks tab includes links to some of the most popular websites as well as a check-box to add them to a right-click menu to search selected text in them. Four of the most popular websites for general search, news, social media, shopping, audio&video and other websites are just 2 clicks away. We'll make the bookmarks menu editable so you can change it to your tailored needs in the future!

To add new search engines that are not the Bookmarks list simply enter New menu name and URL with SELECTION in place of query.

From the Options menu you can select additional features to boost your productivity. The search results for your selection are shown in a new tab or open in a background tab. The keyboard shortcut menu allows you add a shortcut to close all tabs right to the active tab. Go ahead and try it out! Default shortcut is CTRL + Shift D. You can also Pin and close all tabs. Gone are the days of too much clicking!

Stay tuned, we'll be adding new awesome features soon! Please make sure to rate the extension and give us feedback in the comments. If you like this add, recommend it to your friends!
