this addon really helps reducing the not logical duplicity of search boxes. works really fine, but I have found problems with the shortcut (it just not work under TB8 neither TB9). I can still click on it and write the search, but I was wondering if the shortcut issue could be solved, plus it would be great to leave it configurable.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.6.3).

Hi again Pancheto,

*** Edited: New version 0.6.4 already available at AMO solves this problem. Please, if work for you let me know it. Thanks for the Feedback!
***

** Edited: I just solve the problem! I had uploaded the new version at AMO (here) but needs some time to be reviewed by Mozilla Editors and be automatically updated; if you want use the new version now, you can download it from project page at github.com: https://github.com/downloads/IagoSRL/TBX-Unified-Search/tbx_unified_search-v0.6.4.xpi
As you can see here in the extension info, the page at github.com is the official web page of the project.
Enjoy it!

I know this use since today! I just open an issue in my 'issues tracker' at github (https://github.com/IagoSRL/TBX-Unified-Search/issues/7) about this.

Shortcut was working well in all versions previous Thunderbird 8: the problem is that in that version, Mozilla developers decide use the shortcut Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+K for the standard Quick Filter box (what I don't understand is why they set 2 shortcuts for the same, because Ctrl/Cmd+F open the Quick Filter box two, like in previous versions); this shortcut was used by me in Unified Search to focus the Unified Search Widget.

I'm wondering by this change at Thunderbird, and I'm just coding to solve it: the easiest way is to provide another shortcut for the widget, but I'm trying to find a workaround to do work the same shortcut (because previous users and me are accustomed to this shortcut ;-).

Thanks for Feedback,
