2022-10-23 Pe***** The extension is too confusing, and the directions are not clear. I am not very tech savvy, so this extension definitely isn't for me.

2020-10-15 Fi***** Awesome. I initially didn't understood well how it worked, but the developer was really helpful, so I'll clarify my misunderstandings here for others in similar situation so that your simple searches work: 1.- You don't have to mingle with search preferences in Firefox. 2. Consequently, you won't prefix regular searches with non default search engines with "@" when doing - as you do in other explorers and FF defaults. 3. You do have to prefix these custom searches with "ms" before the keys added while doing the search. "ms" stands for Multi Search, but you have to use it even for a simple (non multiple) search. Think of ms as "My Search" if that helps fixing what you're really doing in your head. 4. What a real Multi Search (with several keys) does is opening multiple tabs, one for each search engine that you included as the key. I mostly wanted to alternate searches, rather than doing multisearches at the same time (but will explore that in the future). If you want to search for only the last 3 years for example, which you can do in Chromium browsers with https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y3 , you can do it in FF with this extension, as clarified by Ravi, the developer with: https://www.google.com/search?q={searchTerms}&tbs=qdr:y3 You can substitute y with m, d... for months, days... and of course use the number you want. Still don't know how to do this with ecosia or duck duck go. If anyone knows, please share it so that we all know too :) Thanks a lot to Kevin for this so needed extension!
