Hi, It's now impossible to add lilo.org search engine in firefox mobile for my new android device (android 16, firefox 155.0.1). Now when I try to add it (please check screenshot), I have an error message : "Check that search string matches Example format" The query string is https://search.lilo.org/?q=%s and on my previous android device (Android 13, firefox mobile 155.0.1) I still have it setup as the default search engine, and I just tried to add it again on this device and I don't have this blocking error message. Thanks in advance for your support, Regards, Stéphane

Hi there, Thanks for your answer, by checking your answer I reopened my screenshot but from my PC screen, much larger and I noticed something weird with the % character in my string: for some reason on my new device, the keyboard layout propose both % sign and this c/o sign (please check the screenshot). So it was my mistake, and firefox was perfectly right to say that the format was not correct, I replaced this weird character by a decent % and I could add my search engine ;) Thanks again for your time and help, Regards, Stéphane

Hi Stephane, I can confirm it works,

https://search.lilo.org/?q=%s

Post it in as plain text, in your pic the % looks odd.

Also, please update to Firefox 156.

Thank You

Hi Stephane, I have answered your question, And it is waiting on Mods to approve.
