Overview

Allows you to make specified domains STAND OUT or DISAPPEAR from Google, DuckDuckGo, Bing, and StartPage search results.

Search Filter - improving your search results since 2012! Changelog 2.1.15 fixes filtering on Google 2.1.14 fixes filtering on DDG 2.1.13 renamed extension to Search Filter 2.1.12 fixes dark mode on Google 2.1.11 fixes bug where extension would freeze if highlight/hide clicked before setup 2.1.9 fixes filtering on Google 2.1.8 fixes filtering on Google image search 2.1.7 fixes filtering on Google 2.1.6 added support for StartPage 2.1.5 fixes filtering on Google News 2.1.0 easily create filters directly from search results 2.0.0 reduced permissions, improved syncing, external filters, support for all searches (images, videos, news included), and initial support for DuckDuckGo and Bing. 1.0.11 bugfix 1.0.10 improved performance 1.0.9 far more efficient and now compatible with Firefox 1.0.6 syncing is working again (SSL'd connection to sync server) 1.0.5 updated to support new version of Google Search 1.0.4 added support for https://encrypted.google.com/ 1.0.3 significant performance improvements 1.0.2 added support for Google Instant About Search Filter This extension is mainly targeted at developers who run API or problem focused searches over and over again. There are usually a handful of sites whose results we prefer, and a handful of sites whose results are poor or worthless. Search Filter allows you to specify (in developer-friendly fashion) sites whose results you would like see highlighted and sites whose results you never want to see. In case you use multiple installations of Chrome, this extension allows you to sync your configuration across all installations. Here is a sample configuration: # Make these domains stand out in results +en.wikipedia.org +stackoverflow.com +github.com +api.rubyonrails.org # SPAM - never show these results experts-exchange.com # Pull filters from external source @https://clobapi.herokuapp.com/default-filters.txt To avoid littering the GUI with buttons, the Search Filter button only appears when running searches on Google.

It's an awesome extension, and I'm glad it got revived. Unfortunately since I switched from Google to the awesome Kagi search engine, I can't use this extension anymore. Hoping someday the dev will add Kagi to the supported search engines.

Haven't gotten it to work yet - I am using another plugin that blocks results from showing and the button from that plugin and this plugin overlap. Is it possible to change the button position?
