Mark My Search

Mark My Search is a browser extension that finds and highlights phrases.

It takes inspiration from many other extensions, including the legacy SearchWP add-on for Firefox.

Common uses

Occurrences are marked in the scrollbar. You can step through them by clicking on a keyword in Mark My Search's toolbar. Keyboard shortcuts are supported for all actions, but how you view and edit them depends on the browser.

A replacement for the browser's find-in-page (Ctrl/Cmd + F):

  • Mark My Search's highlighting stays up-to-date on pages with infinite scrolling and other dynamic content.
  • You can search for multiple keywords at once.
  • You can edit matching options for each keyword:
    case sensitivity, whole words only, stemming mode, diacritics sensitivity, and regex mode.

Finding the relevant parts of a page visited from web search:

  • Mark My Search highlights keywords from online searches automatically. This setting is on by default, but it can be changed from the startpage or popup.

Highlighting a set of keywords on certain websites:

  • Mark My Search can store lists of keywords and highlight them automatically on certain websites.
  • You can configure this in the "Keyword Lists" section of the popup.

Common problems

  • On pages which change frequently, Mark My Search can cause slowdown.
  • Very many highlights can cause slowdown.
  • Some pages, especially ones with a lot of Javascript, respond poorly to Mark My Search's highlighting. NOTE: This is a fixable issue that is being worked on!

Development

NOTE: This section will contain a link to the website, which is planned to host all documentation.
