For the plugin itself, you want 'conquery', which you should be able to find from a Firefox site, e.g. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/231/. The search specifications themselve would typically go in the directory C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins. Some examples follow:

thailanguage.cqr:

What do I do with this code, should I make a new src file using notepad? Should it be a file with a .cqr extension? Where do I put it to be able to search thai-language.com from the search box in the upper right corner?

Yes.

Where do I put it to be able to search thai-language.com from the search box in the upper right corner?

No idea. I've never got that box to work. Conquery works by selecting text, right clicking it, and choosing the location from the drop down menu.

Where the files go depends on where you've installed Firefox. If the directory C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins exists, put it there, but be prepared to look for other similarly named directories. The curious thing is that the location seems to be on a per computer basis rather than on a per user basis.
