### Using with Firefox Containers
|
||||
Unfortunately, Firefox Containers do not currently pass through `POST` requests (the default) to the engine, and Firefox caches the opensearch template on initial page load. To get around this, you can take the following steps to get it working as expected:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Remove any existing Whoogle search engines from Firefox settings
|
||||
2. Enable `GET Requests Only` in Whoogle config
|
||||
3. Clear Firefox cache
|
||||
4. Restart Firefox
|
||||
5. Navigate to Whoogle instance and [re-add the engine](#set-whoogle-as-your-primary-search-engine)
