Websearch in urlbar search not working after disabling new "unified" bar

more options

Hey

As per suggestion in here, I set

  • browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete = false

to disable the new url bar behavior that includes the "visit..." link.

However, now websearch in the url bar is also entirely turned off, which is **not** what I want. If I type "foo" in the urlbar and press enter, FF autoresolves is as a url, and will visit "foo.com".

Is this intended behavior (i.e. setting unifiedcomplete to false is supposed to disable web search in the url bar) or not? And in any case, how I can I make it work as I would like to: **without** "visit...", but **with** websearch from the url bar?

Vald lösning

Disabling the unified location bar should not disable your websearching capabilities. It is possible that it was turned off for whatever reason. Please try the following to turn it back on:

  1. Go to about:config
  2. Locate the keyword.enabled boolean
  3. Toggle the value to true

This should turn the websearching feature back on.

Note: You may need to restart Firefox for the changes to take effect.
