A Mozilla add-on

[LB7]

I just downloaded an extension from the Mozilla site called:"Hyperwords"
Does any know of this extension ?
The reason I'm asking is because it seems to have taken over the function of the Search bar away from Flock and I'm not getting that great on-the-fly-search readout I was getting. I'm thinking of taking it off.
I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with it ? Maybe there is a way to regain control of the Flock search bar and still use this add-on ?
Otherwise, I'm gonna have to take it off.Thanks.

Hi LB7,

Hyperwords is an awesome add-on but you do need to confiqure
it.

Go to
Tools> Add-ons Select hyperwords then click the options and
go through and set it up

Also you can right click on an empty spot on a page, in the menu
hover over hyperwords than either select user settings or user guide

Hope that helps

Thanks for your help.
But a lot of those options(I must admit,I don't understand) It seems like a very nicely integrated tool,BUT, it's seems to be interfering with Flocks search ability?
Putting their Icon right in the upper right search box.When I type in a search term the on-the-fly Flock read-out has stopped !
I don't see in options the ability to move that icon out of the search area so I could have BOTH abilities running ?

LB7,

Go to Tool> Add-ons> hyperwords and click options

Under the toolbar option in the first drop down (install/uninstall)
select "Standard toolbar only"

That should put you back to your standard search function

I DON'T know what to do now. I just posted this on the Flock Forum(who NEVER respond):

"LOOK I;M GOING @#$%^& CRAZY with this Browser.
I can't take it anymore.
I just downloaded an add-on called:HYPERWORDS. It took over the upper right hand Search Bar ! So...when I typed in a search term I LOST Flocks on-the-fly contextual search read out ability. SO.... I disabled the add-on THEN, on re-start ALL MY TABS and Favorites And God knows whatever else DISSAPPEARED !
SO.....I uninstalled Hyperwords and re-started. On re-start I LOST the WHOLE SEARCH BAR in the upper right hand corner ! I Don't know it seems hyperwords took it with it.This S@#s and I'm SICK OF IT !
HOW DO I get my Tabs (and whatever else) back ! WHY am I I losing these things ! How do I get the Browser back to the way it was BEFORE I installed Hyperwords ?"

I'm at my wits end with this Browser. Now the whole browser doesn't seem to work ! I go into options I can't re-set my home page, it doesn't keep my tabs on re-start(selected in options). The Browser doesn't seem to be responding anymore.

I'm tired of having to re-work and re-set-up this Browser Over and Over. Sorry, but I'm VERY frustrated.
Oh yeah, and also (for some reason even though I un-installed the add-on it still shows in the add-ons menu-why is that ?

I was actually surprised when Ed didn't suggest this add-on for the 30DC.
I think its one of Firefox/Flocks most useful add-ons.
We've used in on Flock and Firefox for an age and couldn't live without it

There is NOBODY on the Flock Forum to help me AT ALL ! The Support is the PITS ! I apologize but I going crazy with Flock between my PC and my Mac versions and all the frustrations of getting no timely help. This has been going on for a WEEK now;between assorted issues, on and on.... NOW I'm probably going to have to RE-START Loading the add-ons .... all over again for (I don't know) HOW MANY times and START ALL OVER;BECAUSE, (for some abstruse reason to my uneducated Brain), the Browser isn't responding any more. So I'll probably have to uninstall and re-install ad infinitum AMEN.
I'm sorry but I DO have smoke coming out of my ears.

No problem ...simply suck water up your nose, that should fix it !

Sounds like it's out to get you, you should try something else.

This one looks safe.

LB7,

Welcome to the Internet and techno world !

"I gave you the answer to get your search functions back."

I have Hyperwords on both FireFox3 and Flock2 and have
had this add-on for ever. I agree with Calison I would not
want to be with out it.

If you are still using Flock 1 do yourself a favor and upgrade
to the latest version 2.0b2

Calm down, take a deep breath. I think any of the vets here
will tell you WE Have All Been There and I'm sure will have issues
sometime, somewhere again one day.

Thats just how it is.
