Additional search rules

Adding search rules

The preferred way to add custom search rules to the Firefox add-on is to edit the user.js file in your Firefox profile folder using a text editor.

User-contributed search rules

Here is a list of additional search rules you can add to your WOT configuration:

Ecosia

Ecosia gives at least 80% of their search income to a rainforest protection program run by WWF.

 user_pref("weboftrust.search.ecosia.display",
           "Ecosia");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.ecosia.url",
           "^http(s)?\\:\\/\\/ecosia\\.org\\/search\\.php\\?");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.ecosia.ign",
           "^http(s)?\\:\\/\\/([\\w\\-]+\\.)*ecosia\\.org\\/");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.ecosia.prestyle",
           "a[target] ~ [ATTR] { display: none ! important; }");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.ecosia.style",
           "a ~ [ATTR=\"NAME\"] { background: url(IMAGE) right no-repeat; }");

Note: the prestyle rule stops another rating symbol from appearing next to the "Open in a new tab" icon.

Scroogle Scraper

Scroogle Scraper allows private searches to Google.

 user_pref("weboftrust.search.scroogle.display",
           "Scroogle Scraper");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.scroogle.url",
           "^http(s)?\\:\\/\\/(www|ssl)\\.scroogle\\.org\\/cgi-bin\\/nbbw(ssl)?\\.cgi");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.scroogle.ign",
           "^http(s)?\\:\\/\\/([\\w\\-]+\\.)*scroogle\\.org\\/");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.scroogle.style",
           "a ~ [ATTR=\"NAME\"] { background: url(IMAGE) right no-repeat; }");

Yauba

Yauba is a real-time search engine focused on privacy.

 user_pref("weboftrust.search.yauba.display",
           "Yauba");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.yauba.url",
           "^http(s)?\\:\\/\\/(www\\.)?yauba\\.com\\/");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.yauba.ign",
           "^http(s)?\\:\\/\\/(www\\.)?yauba\\.com\\/");
 user_pref("weboftrust.search.yauba.style",
           "h1 a ~ [ATTR=\"NAME\"] { background: url(IMAGE) right no-repeat; }");
