Google Maps & Google no longer searchable

Hello ContextSearch developer,
Context Search still works fine for me in Firefox, and mostly works in Chrome (somewhat outdated, because Chrome refuses to update further in my old Mac running High Sierra). However, in Chrome, the "Google Maps" and "Google" search options no longer work (the others did). Eventually I just removed those engines. Your help file says one-click search engines are installed automatically, but I've never seen that happen. Also your help says there's a "Search Engines tab" (where??) and to click it to "Import" new search engines (where??). Thank you, Lawrence (Lawrence San, san@sanstudio.com or lawrencesan@gmail.com).

🦊Unable to Import "One-Click Search Engines" from my Firefox into Chrome

Dear Developer,
Can you please help me with getting my Firefox search engines imported into Chrome?

I tried following your instructions however when you mention clicking on a
"button under 'Import One-Click Search Engines' in the Search Engines tab"
This is missing from Chrome and is only in the FF extension. .

Would greatly appreciate any help. Thank you.

PS-I've gotten them to import using the method that doesn't allow you to modify them, but even then none of them worked and would only open a blank tab.

Context Menu Icons Not Appearing

The icons for the search engines in the context menu are not appearing. There appears to be a space to the left of each search engine where they should appear but those spaces are blank, missing the icons. The icons all show in the Quick Menu and the Toolbar, however. I also verified that each search engine has an Icon URI specified within its respective configuration. Any suggestions for resolving this issue. Thanks!

"Template must be an URL" problem

Hi Mike B,
Could you fix the problem I encounter in the field "Template", like, sometimes browsing websites, I see some site addresses displayed in text only, like yahoo.com without direct link set. Then, I cannot just click it to get the access to the website. And I think there is a solution, if the field Template doesn't require an URL, it could be easily to just select the text and another click to go to the website without spending many steps: copy and past to the address bar.
BTW, I am honestly grateful for your wonderful work.
Thank you very much.

Import of an exported file fails;settings reset on Chrome restart

I can export the savings to a json file, & if I try to import that file it always says "file is not a valid JSON". Does the export not format it properly or is it looking for something different on the imported file? Also, I prefer to have an icon displayed on highlighted text, but it always reverts to the "auto popup" on Chrome restart

right-click context menu on links doesn't work anymore

the latest update causes a problem that when I right-click the link, there is no more browser context menu to choose say "open link in new tab". How can I fix it? Thank you so much for your awesome work!
