Description Paolo Benvenuto 2009-11-02 09:01:24 UTC 
Gecko epiphany had the possibility to select a text in the page, and then with right-click contestual menu you could access intelligent bookmarks.

That has disappeard in webkit epiphany.
Comment 1 Reinout van Schouwen 2009-11-02 10:28:13 UTC 
Are you sure you have enabled the Smart Bookmarks extension? 
This could also simply follow from bug 562617, which should be fixed in 2.29.x. Could you verify this please?
Comment 2 Paolo Benvenuto 2009-11-02 11:56:55 UTC 
I'm using ubuntu (karmic), I have epiphany-extensions installed, but I can't see any "smart bookmars" extension in Tools -> Extensions any more
Comment 3 Reinout van Schouwen 2009-11-02 13:28:06 UTC 
Installing epiphany-extensions is not enough, you should enable the Smart bookmarks extension in the extension manager. Also, you didn't answer the question whether the problem still exists in Epiphany 2.29.1 (development version). Can you test that, please?
Comment 4 Paolo Benvenuto 2009-11-02 13:30:55 UTC 
Although I installed epiphany-extensions package, epiphany's Extension Manager doesn't show any Smart Bookmarks extensions to select.

I can't test 2.29.1
Comment 5 Reinout van Schouwen 2009-11-02 14:30:37 UTC 
Still NEEDINFO until someone confirms with 2.29.
Comment 6 Paolo Benvenuto 2010-05-27 05:47:13 UTC 
still present in 2.30.2.

Still no smart bookmarks checkbox in Tools -> Extensione
Comment 7 antistress 2010-06-12 14:31:36 UTC 
concerning the way searches are handled with Epiphany :

For the record there are 2 extensions which really increase my productivity on Firefox and which make user life really simpler :
Context Search (https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/240 - demo at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/images/p/1127/
and Add to Search Bar (
https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/3682 - demo at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/images/p/26482/1223168575 )

I think that bug report is about the 1st one
Please bring that functionality back in Epiphany it's very useful (i'm using Epiphany 2.30.2 (from that PPA https://launchpad.net/~webkit-team/+archive/epiphany ) on Ubuntu Lucid and the functionality is indeed missing)

The 2nd one is Bug 336274
Comment 8 Diego Escalante Urrelo (not reading bugmail) 2010-12-15 19:42:30 UTC 
Fixed this in e-e master.
