Description DeviantART + Google Search Plug-in for Mozilla FireFox
[ Version 1.4 | January 7, 2007 ]

I no longer support this product.

... updated with better code and awesome icons by ~jujimufu ...

... added HTML installer made by `dancewiththesky

Function:
Searches for various deviantART pages through Google.

Features:
Now with the Beta Search included.
Corresponding icons by each search.
Anyone who is running FireFox can use it.
You can search for the following: Deviants Deviations Help/FAQ News Prints Journals Deviations or anything that has deviantart.com in its url!!
You can search specific catagories now, just type in the category before the keywords (ex: ' photomanipulation suzi9mm' gives you manips with Jen's work).
Includes the original deviant art in-site search!

Requirements:
Mozilla Firefox 1.0 or greater.

To install:
Windows:
1. Unzip the contents to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins or similar directory .
2. Restart FireFox.
3. Enjoy searching deviantART on the go.

Mac OSX:
1. Download the zip file.
2. Locate the Firefox folder from your hard drive ( most likely it is in the Applications folder).
3. Right click on the Firefox icon and choose 'Show Package Contents' from the options.
4. Open the 'Contents' folder then 'MacOS' folder then the 'searchplugins' folder.
5. Extract the downloaded plug-in's files into the 'seachplugins' folder.
6. Restart FireFox.
7. Enjoy searching deviantART on the go.

Alternatively you can use the included .html file to install the plugins without messing around your directories.

Support:
If, for some odd reason, you cannot get the search plug-ins to work, please note me with your problem, FireFox version, and basic computer info.

Previous versions:
1.4 01/07/07 Added HTML installer made by `dancewiththesky and fixed a typo
1.3 06/09/06 Icons for each search, better code (all thanks to ~jujimufu )
1.2 09/08/05 Added beta search support.
1.1 04/25/05 Category support, new Mac OS X instructions.
1.0 04/24/05 Inital release.

Pimp it out:
If you find this plug-in useful, and want to get others aware, you can pimp it out in your Journal or ShoutBoard. All you have to do is get the HTML here and paste it in the desired Journal box. (Remember you can only use HTML in your journal if you are a subscriber.) For non subscribers, y'all can try this: [acronym title="β€œDevART + Google Search Plug-in”, by `hyper-psycho"][a href="[link] "]deviantART + Google Firefox Plug-in[/a][/acronym].

1. Are you running Linux?
2. What's that final blurred search?
3. Do you know of any way to remove search tools from FF?

Wow, it works! Thank you so much!

I have been a bit upset that the search has been down ever since I subscribed to dA, so you just made my day.

Thank you!

You should turn this into an .xpi install package and put it up on mozdev.org

Zlatty In reply to zeruch [2005-04-30 10:18:46 +0000 UTC]

1. I dont know how to do that --- can you give me a guide (a link or something) ...
2. I emailed mozdev -- no response yet

zeruch In reply to Zlatty [2005-05-02 10:49:43 +0000 UTC]

well, the .xpi format is basically a compressed archiving format (like .rar or .zip) that has the Mozilla/Firefox extension daya inside it and an installation script that the browser can use to autoinstall.

Is just some of the stuff out there. Thankfully documentation is growing in availablility.

man this is just too difficult for me to understand right now
i think the zipped method works just fine
though haing an .xpi would be alot more funer

maybe after summerschool done ill give it a crack
in the mean time I have to relearn how to do webpages
zlatkounger . com has been doing nothing for the past six months
