i was trouble using this plugin (exception errors) until i overwrote FARRGoogleSuggestRCW.dll with the file FARRPluginRCW.dll from FarrAltTab and renamed it as FARRGoogleSuggestRCW.dll. hope this helps someone with the same problem..

Hi,

I don't have a proxy but as far as I can see FARRGoogleSuggest should pick up the proxy settings from Internet Explorer. If I enter invalid proxy settings in Internet Explorer FARRGoogleSuggest fails, so it appear that it is picking up the proxy configuration from IE.

Sincerely

JP

jpgrosen tku for this amazing plugin  :o

Is there any way however to use this with my other web searches? For example say i wanted to search imdb or metacritic for a movie title. You could use google suggest to find the title and consequently replace the googe search string the imdb one using the title suggested? I think this would be a really powerful addition to this plugin. I often find that google is better at finding what i am looking for than i am  ;D

P.S. I also noticed that this plugin does not rank the search results by the number of results found. Is there a way to change this?

thx

Jens,

it would be great if you could make a dcupdate file for this plugin, not just so it would be easier to update, but so i can add it to the list of plugins that can automatically be installed by users.

i can provide webspace if you want, just ask.

Not sure if this is the place to post this, but I use FARRGoogleSuggest all the time and sometimes wish I could hotkey into "feeling lucky".  i.e., I'm typing into FARR, looking at the google suggest results, and just want to go straight to one of the first google results (not go to google to see the results, and then go to the first list).  Maybe something like Alt-F1, Alt-F2, etc.?

Does anyone know a way to achieve something like this?

Thanks for any suggestions.

And thanks for the awesome plug-in!

I installed this today. It crashes every time I use it and I have to kill/restart FARR, so I have now uninstalled it.
What a pity! Looks like it has potential!

Is there a dcupdater for this?

this plugin hasn't been updated for some time. there is snewave's GooglePlus plugin which shows the Google search results in FARR as you type. you might want to try that.

This is the only external plugin I really want to use with FARR, but unfortunately it just doesn't work for me. :(

Using Win 8.1 64bit w/ latest FARR2

This is the pluginlog.txt error I get:

06:03 PM, Sunday, March 15, 2015
 Error initializing plugin do_init function
D:\Applications\Donation Coder\FindAndRunRobot\Plugins\FARRGoogleSuggest\FarrGoogleSuggest.dll


Can someone help me fix this problem so I can use this awesome plugin? :(
