en This extension is awesome! But there is an alert 'This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions.'. Could you please upgrade it, and keep it working? Thank you very much!!

en MultiHighlighter is a decent highlighter with a simple input box and no settings (e.g., always fragment of words, case insensitive, diacritic sensitive). It's a pity that it does not highlight words in iFrames. But the main issue is that, it uses Manifest V2, which will soon be deprecated, and the developer hasn't updated it since 2014! Unless this changes, I recommend current users try my own highlighter, Multi Find, for a more customizable and future-proof experience: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/multi-find-chercher-et-su/dffaiikpbncahnghlfnkhagffaemhgfo

Es una muy buena herramientá para buscar palabras en diferentes páginas, pero el problema es que no funciona bien cuando se usa para buscar varias palabras en Excel de Google Docs, no encuentra las palabras que se agregan en la hoja, en contraste con el buscador normal de Ctrl-f, que aunque sólo busca una palabra a la vez, la encuentra en la hoja de Excel con facilidad.

this thing is stupid. i'm trying to highlight terms on the page. and it does that. but if you have an open box of keywords - it erases the word as it finds it. its gone, just gone. its like it turned it into a find and replace, its not white, its just missing now. i think this is what i wanted in a program if it just highlighted things. but to make it vanish too? that's stupid. i don't get that.
