User reviews
Works, but searches for whole words only. I'm trying to search page for a list profane words which could be conjugated into other forms including many non standard forms or forms with superfluous letter repetition, (like if I wanted to search for "hell" it could highlight the HELL in HELLLLLLLLLLLLP, or HELLO.) This is how the default chrome search bar works, and I hoped this extension would as well. It also requires refreshing the page after entering in the rules, which also isn't helpful, especially if there are expansion links, i.e. "see more."
Sounds good and exactly what I need, but doesn't work at all, unfortunately.
Please make it available in Vivaldi too.
