Description

This extension is for anyone who wants to add Metacritic to their search engines in Chrome. If you've tried to do that before, you'll have noticed that it doesn't work if the search term contains more than one word (i.e. a space). That's because Metacritic uses weird search strings that replace the space with a "+", but Chrome assumes that a search string will replace a space with a "%20".

Its such a simple little thing, but it's very frustrating. This extension replaces the "%20" with a "+", allowing you to add Metacritic to your search engines!

This is the search URL you need: http://metacritic.com/search/all/%s/results

This builds on FearJiri's Google-Chrome-URL-Replacer-Extension hosted on GitHub. I have added a couple of lines so that it works in a modern Chrome Browser, and icons for prettiness.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
