When I open Firefox for the first time or on a new window the cursor automatically is in the address bar. I prefer to have the cursor to default into the search box. I don't want to search with the address bar. It did not used to be this way on my old laptop.

This may be more in "settings" than in "search, tag, and share".

Since updating to the 140 series, the URL bar has what appears to be a nonremovable "what kind of search do you want to run?" activated by typing in the URL bar.

Do Not Want. That's the entire purpose of having the separate search bar. For those who only have the URL bar visible, that might make sense, but right in the core Settings I chose to have both the URL bar and the search bar. I do not ever want searches initiated from the URL bar.

Is there a way to remove this unwanted "extra feature"?

And a gentle hint to those doing interface tweaking and redesigns: Those of us who use "separation" features directly supported by the program — that is, not requiring an extension or theme — would really, really appreciate having our choices respected. That the separate search bar is already selected and visible, or having a full menu bar (and not just the hamburger symbol) visible, should be a hint that there just might be functional, safety, security, and/or disability-accommodation considerations behind that user's choice, and you shouldn't override it Just Because.

Hello.

In about:config the keyword.enabled false does not work anymore.

So how on earth do we stop this stupid search option in the url bar. When i open a new tab, i'll get on a firefox tab. In the middle I can search (in the search bar), but after typing 1 letter, the search is moved to be in the address bar. WHY????

How to stop this madness?

Thank you for an answer

I prefer to use Startpage as my search engine with Firefox on my Mac. I have that set up, but it's so annoying that when I put something in the address or search bar, no search happens. Instead, I just get the Startpage home page and then have to retype the same thing in there! How do I solve this?

Hello, I recently found Ecosia search to be force-installed in firefox, and after much digging I found this to be because of a new collab between them and mozilla. However, I HATE when things gets forced upon you, its the only reason I have stuck with firefox this long.

I cant seem to find a way to remove this search option from my providers list, please instruct me on how to do this, cause if I cant, I will unfortunately have to drop firefox as my browser.

//Kind regards

When I search using duckduckgo within firefox I get a white page with no results sometimes, it's quite frequent and I'm not sure what is the cause. I've tried disabling addons like Ubo, malwarebytes and had no luck. I've changed my firefox settings hoping that would fix it but it hasn't. It's like the page doesn't fully load.

Hello everyone.

I'm dealing with something a bit strange.

When I try to use Firefox on Linux to search for things with Google, the `+` character is automatically removed from the query string. For example:

  • Searching for `c++`, I got `c`
  • Searching for `g++`, I got `g`.

This issue doesn't happen for DuckDuckGo, but only Google (using the same browser, just different tabs). I don't have (and don't plan to install) other browsers on my linux box to try, but from another machine in the same network I didn't have this issue with Safari / Chrome.

I'm using Firefox for Linux on Fedora Sway Spin.

I created a screen recording but the forum doesn't allow posting video. I can share it if needed.

The issue happened locally (I think couple of days go, earlier I was able to search for C++ related stuff troubles).

Please let me know if there's anything I can try to fix this.

Thank you very much in advance
