I'm trying to configure this function in EN-FR-SP.

For EN-FR, I've got four sites working ok out of 8. I know my version of Memoq is not the latest (2014-Edition 7.0.76).
However, I'm still surprised at the number of unworking links: IATE, Larousse EN-FR, TAUS.

Is it the same on your side? Or did Memoq just put in a whole load of useless website addresses?

And then the test phrase: "linear regression". Is that a common disease in Hungary?

Links change May 28, 2018

Most links are broken in memoQ 2015, as well. Link structures change and it is beyond Kilgray's control.

You can visit the sites you need, copy the updated URLs and paste them into memoQ's Web Search settings. Not guaranteed to work every time, since some sites need some query data to be submitted via POST (which is not visible in the URL).

You'd better contact Kilgray's Support, if you have an active license.

As for "linear regresssion", I am not quite sure what you mean. It is not a medical term. It is a term in Algebra.

Partial success May 28, 2018

I had success with some sites, but not with others. I stopped using Web Search altogether, as it has not been implemented nicely and it has been abandoned. I prefer to do my searches in a full-fledged web browser. It's just a matter of organizing your bookmarks and having plenty of resources.

I hope memoQ 9 changes the current situation. Till then, I'll avoid memoQ as much as I can.
