Then just restart Firefox and you're good to go.

Firefox NWNWiki go plugin[]

As another option, a version of the plugin is available that uses the Go feature (instead of Search). It acts just like the Go button on the left hand search menu of this web site: it goes directly to the article. If the articles, doesn't exist, it performs a search.

For example, if you enter "elf" in the NWNWiki go plugin, it will bring you directly to the elf page. If you enter "elf dwarf," it will display the search results of all pages with both terms, because there isn't a page titled elf dwarf.

Go plugin installation instructions[]

  1. Click on this link to the mycroft.mozdev.org web site.
  2. Click on the second NWNWiki link with the white icon Firefox NWNWiki go plugin (the Go version).
  3. Click OK on the Add Search Engine dialog box.
  4. Wait 15 seconds before clicking the search bar.

Go plugin alternative installation instructions[]

  1. Download the go plugin zip file.
  2. Unzip the files into the C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/searchplugins directory.
  3. Restart Firefox.

The search plugin icon is black Firefox NWNWiki search plugin and the go plugin icon is white Firefox NWNWiki go plugin. You can install both plugins; just use the dropdown box to pick one or the other.
