The feature looks like it is either incomplete or wrong: default search engine is used differently in two places of the same application unless otherwise stated (by that toggle). > Maybe you can find something in the commit messages or in old Qupzilla > issues, merge requests. I would say that "common sense" should fill the gaps in the documentation. Either you use the default search engine everywhere or you let the user specify as many search engines as the number of places where it can be used. In this case, once for the search bar and one for the URL bar. Anyway, the "feature" is somehow broken. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=454398#c4 If you go to Edit/Preferences/Tabs -> Address Bar Behavior and tick box 7 "Search with Default Engine", even when you un-tick it back, the URL search engine stays in sync with the search bar one. Which is what I consider the way this feature should be. If you don't think this is a bug, then close it as "NOT A BUG" or "WON'T FIX". And, in any case, even as it is now, once you toggle that "" check box, you cannot go back to the previous behavior anymore. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
