Hello. Is there a way to do that ? How to configure it to make it work as in the topic ?

Hi, thank you for this question If you mean by that, that when you search in one tab and it will look also in another tabs for results, no it doesn't do that I'm not sure if that is possible since it's going to make some security concerns

There is an addon to search a "string" through all open tabsm but it is not perfect. Firstly, it searches all tabs, and there is no option to choose from tabs of one window only (if multiple windows are opened). Secondly, it cannot find for example a URL in the DOM - I tried with one of the hosts, and it did not find it at all..

So I am asking here, because I use RegexSearch extension every day : ] It would be a good option to have multiple tab search, by choosing one or more windows to search in.
