Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

Adds back the discussions button to Google search results, which enables you to search forums and message boards.

Update: Google has since outright disabled the discussion search functionality. As a workaround, the discussions link will now modify your search query and add some relevant filters.

Source code -

New in 1.4.10

• Added options page. Toggle between original "Forums" button, and discussion filters.

This is a great tool + automatically applies common forum footprints to search discussions. Anybody who ever follows Amy Hoy's 30x500 understands the concept of a sales safari - observing your customer's in their native habitat. How they talk, what their pain is etc. Google were foolish to abandon this function.

I like this. It's the best replacement for Google Discussions search currently available, since they've effectively removed all discussion search capability from their search engine. Not as good as Google did it, but the best we have as of now!

Google is somehow now blocking via the TOS. I think this is absolutely bullshit. Censoring the internet.

Снова вернул себе поиск по обсуждениям! Всё работает. 15.04.2015. Всё, отработалось - не показывает поиск по обсуждениям :( Посоветуйте альтернативу, плиз. 17.04.2015.-снова начал отлично работать. Теперь снова имею фильтр для поиска "только по обсуждениям". 02.12.2016. Ну ё моё - опять не работает. Даже удаление и новая установка расширения не помогает. Люди! Есть альтернатива? Очень нужен фильтр поиска именно по обсуждениям! :-) 06.01.2017 И снова расширение работает, теперь у меня даже отдельной "кнопкой" "дискуссии" появились. Спасибо разработчикам!

Would appreciate if it included specific discussion sites that may not be picked up by the standard keywords, like reddit, stack exchange, quora, etc. Also it would be really nice if it would put the discussion keyword search bit in the url but not in the search query itself, to make the query cleaner like before Google disabled it. Of course I have no idea how much work that could be.
