Hi :-)

I'm a brand new user of Musicbee - but already a big fan  :-*

I'm learning something new about the program day by day but one thing I simply can't figure out is how to add "searches" to the Web Browser (plugin)?

How do I for example add the search "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=<Title>" so it's an option in the Web Browser drop-down menu?

Best regards,
Mikkel

I don't use the web browser plugin, but I think this should work.
Preferences > Internet > custom web links
Give it a name and use https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=<Title>

These will then show up in the Track Information or Now Playing panels and all you need to do is select the track(s) and click on the web link. It will (should) open up the page in your default browser.
Download the latest MusicBee v3.5 or 3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.

@phred: Thanks a lot! It works like a charm (and the web links even show up in the Web Browser Plugin)  :)  :D

Thanks for the feedback. Happy to hear that it works. And it's good to know that it works within the browser plugin.
