Firefox could not install the search engine from…
I'm trying to make APLcart work with OpenSearch, but keep getting Firefox could not install the search engine from: https://aplcart.info/opensearch.xml
with:
<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" title="APLcart"
href="/opensearch.xml">
Where /opensearch.xml
is:
<OpenSearchDescription>
<ShortName>APLcart</ShortName>
<Description>
Search APLcart: A novel approach to finding your way in APL
</Description>
<InputEncoding>UTF-8</InputEncoding>
<Image width="16" height="16" type="image/x-icon">https://aplcart.info/favicon.ico</Image>
<Url type="text/html" template="https://aplcart.info/?q={searchTerms}"/>
</OpenSearchDescription>
- Note that this is not the same issue, since I do have
Url type="text/html"
. - I've tried with
method="get"
What do I need to change for my OpenSearch specification to be compliant?
You have to use the correct namespace
<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/">
If you open the browser console (CTRL+Shift+J) you can see the error message
Invalid search plugin due to namespace not matching.
