The Links feature is nice.
By default, it searches for Artist.
I would like it to search for Artist and Album.
How can I do that?
In the Manage links, I see one can edit Search.
But I don't know how to edit it to get the result I want.

here's one for Google Images using Album Artist and Album, modified from 6233638 post in this thread

Code: [Select]

<Link version="1,2">
<Item Name="Name">Cover Art</Item>
<Item Name="Action">1</Item>
<Item Name="Base URL">https://www.google.com</Item>
<Item Name="Search URL">https:////www.google.com//search?as_st=y&amp;tbm=isch&amp;as_q=Hexify([Album Artist (auto)] [Album])&amp;safe=images&amp;tbs=isz:lt,islt:xga,iar:s,imgo:1&amp;biw=1097&amp;bih=567</Item>
<Item Name="Filter">[Media Type]=[Audio],[Image],[Video]</Item>
</Link>
if you want to paste it in using the paste from clipboard button,  copy the code above.

Basically, you need to go to a site and do a search then copy the URL adding // to every double slash as the double slash is used as an escape character. so  https://www.google.com needs to be https:////www.google.com. The you need to substitute a field or two, (like [Artist] in brackets) for what you searched for. Each site is different, some use hexidecimal searches some don't ... so some compter literacy is required.  You might need to ask using a specific search request or modify an existing one that is shared here. Google searching is more complicated than most IMO
