✨ Organise, Filter, and Cross-Engine Search from One Panel
📍 Author: GitHub | Script: Repository
A floating panel that adds site-group filtering, a time range selector, a domain blacklist, and a multi-engine switcher to major search engines — all accessible from a single 🔍 button on the page.
💡 Overview
This script is not a general-purpose search tool or a search-engine switcher.
Its primary purpose is to help you manage and apply site:<domain> parameters while you search.
You define groups of domains you frequently want to scope your searches to, and the script appends the appropriate site: filter to your current query instantly.
Secondary tools bundled alongside the core feature include: a segmented time-range control (from 1 hour up to 9 years), a quick engine-switcher bar for navigating across engines with the same keyword, a domain blacklist to suppress unwanted results, and configurable keyword exclusion fields. After installation, a draggable 🔍 button appears on any supported search engine — clicking it opens the main panel where all these controls live. The panel itself is draggable and resizable.

🚀 Core Features
🗂️ Site Groups
Organise domains you frequently search into named groups (e.g. "News", "Dev", "Docs"). Each group can hold multiple domain entries, each optionally labelled with a short note of up to four characters.
- Click Add Group ➕ to create a new group and give it a name.
- Click Add Site ➕ inside a group to register a domain (e.g.
github.com). Optionally add a short display note.
- Left-click any site button to immediately redirect your current search with a
site: domain filter applied.
- Long-press and drag a site button to reorder entries within the group.
- Click ⋯ on any site button to open its context menu: edit the URL or note, delete the entry, or open the domain in the same or a new tab.
- Use the search bar at the top of the panel to filter visible site buttons by URL or note text.
- Toggle between displaying URLs and notes on the site buttons using the Show Addresses / Show Notes control.
☑️ Multi-Select Mode
Select multiple sites within a group and act on them all at once.
- Click ☑ on a group header to enter multi-select mode. Selected sites are highlighted.
- Click sites to toggle their selection on or off.
- When ready, choose a send mode: combined
site:A OR site:B search (same tab or new tab), or open each site directly without attaching a keyword.
- Optionally save the selection so the same sites remain pre-selected the next time you open multi-select for that group.
- Exit multi-select by clicking ☑ again or by clicking ↗ Open Selected.
🕐 Time Filter
Restrict search results to a specific time window using the control below the engine icon bar.
- Six quick-access segments — Unlimited / 1h / 1d / 1w / 1m / 1y — allow one-click switching between the most common ranges.
- The full set of 23 preset intervals (from Within 1 hour to Within 9 years) is also available.
- When the active engine does not support time filtering, the entire row appears dimmed and a notification is shown on click.
- Select Unlimited to clear the time restriction.
- The selected range carries across engine switches.
🔀 Engine Switcher
Jump to a different search engine while keeping your current keyword.
- The top row of the panel displays up to 5 engine icons as quick-access shortcuts.
- Click any icon to navigate to that engine with the active search term.
- Open the Search Engine Manager to view and reorder the full engine list. Drag ⠿ handles to rearrange — the top 5 positions are shown as icons.
- Use 🔍 Auto-Detect Current Site to register the page you are currently on as a new engine entry.
- Engines can be opened in a new window using the ⧉ button.
- Enable 🔒 Lock Engine Hint to show a reminder when navigating away from your preferred engine.
🚫 Domain Blacklist
Block specific domains from appearing in your search results.
- Open 🚫 Blacklist from the Search Settings section to manage blocked domains.
- Enter one domain per line (e.g.
pinterest.com). Invalid entries are skipped with a notification.
- The blacklist is applied automatically across all supported engines and persists between sessions.
- The blacklist button can be hidden from the toolbar via Style Settings if you prefer a cleaner interface.
⚙️ Search Settings
Accessible via the ⚙️ button inside the panel.
- Set up to two exclude keywords, which are automatically appended as
-keyword operators to every search.
- Open the Search Syntax Reference 📖 for a quick-reference card covering common operators such as
inurl:, intitle:, filetype:, and site:.
- View the panel-level help guide for a full description of all controls and gestures.
⚠️ Experimental Features & Known Limitations
🔒 Safe Search OFF
An opt-in toggle that attempts to inject URL parameters (e.g. safe=off) to disable a search engine's content filter on each navigation.
- No guarantee of effectiveness. Engines may ignore these parameters or change their implementation at any time.
- Baidu is not supported by this feature.
- A one-time explanation card is shown the first time you enable this option.
🌐 Search Region: All
An opt-in toggle that attempts to remove or replace country/region parameters from search URLs so results are not limited to a specific country.
- No guarantee of effectiveness. Engines may override this behaviour through IP detection or other means.
- Baidu and Naver are not supported by this feature.
- A one-time explanation card is shown the first time you enable this option.
