Go to URL

Like Internet Search for books, but populated with sites or urls.

I like to go to mobilreads a lot, and it would be nice to be able to link to it through Calibre and have my username and password automatically applied and automatically go to the Calibre forums without having to exit Calibre, open my browser and go to where I want.

Users can populate the plugin by copy/pasting their own urls, perhaps the plugin can come prepopulated with common options.

Can be populated with any url, and can be configured to add search terms

example:
"https://www.google.com/search?q={dlgstring|Enter search term/s}"

This is the code to create a search box in my Directory Opus file manager, not sure if it is something that can be recreated.

Also nice to use to go to Goodreads to search genres or lists. I also have a dropdown menu that allows me to

search lists:

"https://www.goodreads.com/list/tag?utf8=✓&id={dlgstring|Enters earch term/s}"

Genres

"https://www.goodreads.com/genres/{dlgstring|Enters earch term/s}"

I also use it to go directly to the Goodreads export library .csv page

"https://www.goodreads.com/review/import"

For easier configuration, maybe going through the plugin to the desired site can capture the destination and if the user wants to add the search box the plugin can automatically add it to the end?

Not sure how it can work, but if there is a way to take the same properties of the search internet plugin but without having to use a book to set up the search.
