Bookmark or shortcut for a specific google search
Hi, I would like to create a bookmark for a specific Google search, namely for searching within a specific branch of a specific site. The idea is to NOT add "site:insertyourworksitehere.org/docs/office" each and every time I want to look for something in that particular place (always the same part of the same website).
I found this article that addresses a close, but not the exact same, topic: 1° https://www.itworld.com/article/2756332/networking-hardware/a-shortcut-for-site-specific-searching-in-google.html. But this is designed to look for something in the current website.
I have to add, to further overcomplexify the problem, that there is no "search" feature on the website itself. (Yes. I know.)
Any help appreciated!

A normal keyword bookmark for Google search might look like this:
Name: Google Search Location: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s Keyword: g
When you enter g Firefox in the address bar and submit that, the %s is replaced with Firefox in the URL.
A site-targeted variation, for example, for this site, would require this edit:
Name: Google Search Mozilla Support Location: https://www.google.com/search?q=site:support.mozilla.org+%s Keyword: gm
To set that up, you could right-click a spot on the Bookmarks Toolbar or Bookmarks Menu, then click New Bookmark. Or if you already created a bookmark to Google (this captures the icon, so that might be nice) you could edit that bookmark using right-click > Properties.
Success?
Wonders! Thank you SO MUCH!
