i'm talking about google search plugin. i just want it to work the way it does in address bar with "/ncr" suffix. tia
on the upper right hand side of firefox, there's this search box with integrated search engines. when you use google with it, it displays search results according to your current location. i'm looking for a way to implement "/ncr" method to this search box.
Perhaps these two links can help: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-to-search-bar/ https://www.wilderssecurity.com/thr...-version-released.361562/page-10#post-2446943
Yes, I forgot about telling about Add to search bar which was the tool I used to add the search engine to the search bar.
thanks guys but neither the first nor the second link is about the issue i'm having. and i already did that about:config trick mentioned in the second link back when the new search box was introduced. here's what i'm trying to do: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/935148 http://superuser.com/questions/817087/firefox-modifying-google-searchplugin-to-not-country-redirect the method in the first link is a no go for me because i don't keep cookies. and as for the one in the second link, it doesn't work for me. tia
If you visit http://www.google.com/ncr just once, it saves the cookie and tells Google to always search the default Google not specific to your geo location. Make sure you aren't clearing your cookies though otherwise the saved setting won't last
thanks but as i said in my previous posts, that's not what i'm trying to do. i'm trying to do this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/935148 http://superuser.com/questions/817087/firefox-modifying-google-searchplugin-to-not-country-redirect
So use Add to search bar extension and https://encrypted.google.com/. After you have installed that extension, right click in the search field and add that as a search engine. And remove the one Firefox came with.
