troch meg, 9 jierren lynWhen I first installed this the popup menu whenever I selected something was a surprise, but once I got used to it I decided it was really helpful. Now it's gone.
This is probably related to the "web extension" change discussed on the add-on page but I don't really understand how that works, and even though there's a statement there saying "Your settings from previous versions are incompatible. You'll have to customize what you need again. :( " I see no instructions for how to do that, not there and not on the GitHub page. I switched to this after the context-menu search add-on I had stopped working; I guess it's time to find another one of those.

9 jierren lyn pleatstHi Meg! Sorry for the lack of instructions. I realize I might not have done well in that regard. You're right, the change to WebExtensions made it harder to access the search engines that you have in Firefox, so it's not automatic anymore and, therefore, definitely not as intuitive (I wish it was!).
I'll make a note to improve this in the future. I'll also try to explain now. :)
I couldn't understand if the popup was not appearing at all for you now, or if the problem was only that only a few engines appear now. For the second case:
If you go to the add-ons page that has your Firefox extensions (Ctrl+Shift+A is the easy way to go there) and then open Swift Selection Search (SSS) you will be in the "options" page. You should see a lot of options below the add-on description, but the most important ones are at the top under "Search engines": the table of search engines and a button labeled [Select "search.json.mozlz4"] below it. That button lets you give SSS the file that contains the search engines present in Firefox itself. You have a few instructions to the right of the button on where to find this file. After that you should have your engines back, hopefully.
If you have trouble with anything, you can contact me at daniel.rb.lobo+sss@gmail.com and I'll try to help. :)

Daniel

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch atata, 7 moannen lynIt's great.
However, as the number of search engines I want to use increases, it becomes too large to fit them all.
It would be great if it had a multi-level structure using folders like bookmarks. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 17966372, 7 moannen lyn

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Leviii, 9 moannen lynAmazing addon, I have bunch of search engines saved and it prevents me from routing everything through google. Also I have integrated it with everything windows search app which makes it even more useful. Currently development is stalled but it's become irreplaceable for me.

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch meonmf, 9 moannen lynThis extension is absolutely fantastic—the intuitive yet powerful interface, the deep customization options, and the full backup and restore features make it a joy to use. Truly impressive work. You've covered it all (except an Android version 😭 though I know there's a fork I can use instead).

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Aissa Jessus, 10 moannen lynVery effect and clean. Easy and quick to setup and add new search sites and customize them.
I am currently using it heavily for cross sites search and routine custom searches.
