The ebay add-on search stopped working

In the past, putting a subject in the Firefox search box and choosing the ebay search engine opened ebay and passed the subject to the ebay search. This ebay page automatically came up with the ebay search results.

Not now. Putting a subject in the search box and choosing the ebay search engine opens ebay, but then stops.

My other search engines, Google, Wikepedia, Amazon, work as before and go direct to the search results.

Any advice on how to get the Firefox>ebay>search links to work as before?

Thank you

Hi, are you using a multiple word search on the eBay site? A single word search should be working.

If this is affecting multiple-words only, this is a known issue that is being fixed in Firefox 85 that is due out later today.

Thank you. I was wondering why the ebay search worked sometimes and sometimes not. I look forward to the fix.
