  • How to create a wordie search:

    Create a file called wordie.xml and put it here (stick this in your run command in the start menu and it will bring up your appdata folder): %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\wyzwjx2f.default\searchplugins

    In the xml file, put the following. Restart firefox.

    <SearchPlugin xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/2006/browser/search/" xmlns:os="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/">

    <os:ShortName>Wordie</os:ShortName>
