The added search engines doesn't appear in the drop down box.
I have seen a lot of post regarding the inability to edit the default search engines so I will stick with Vivaldi

Did you create them or did you copy/replaced the Web Data file?

Using Opera 49. Used Opera in the XP days and did not like the new look of Opera.
However now I am back again to try. Looks OK but the one thing I miss is the search box drop down menu where you instantly could choose your search engine.
What happened! Please put it back or I revert to Vivaldi!AMEN!!!, agree 1,000,000,000%

At least in my Dev profile appears the first fourth custom search engines, I'll check on the Stable one.
Can you provide the search string?

It appears:
But the string seems to be wrong since a CPU search gives this result.

Sorry the search string was incorrect. Used long time ago in old Opera.
Here is the correct one

Thanks for all your help.
Now only make it possible to edit default search engines and I can start using Opera again. -

Have now edited the search engine .json as per earlier posts
by using siteprefs.json and renaming it to default_partner_content.json
and putting it back in D:\PortApps\Opera\profile\data and D:\PortApps\Opera\49.0.2725.47\resourcesNow it works as I hoped it would!

There is ways to override default omnibox search engine to whatever but those are not brought forth to addon/extensions as Google and Opera attack those methods like it's some kind of Tienanmen...

Do you mean harder or easier ways than the @fyrekrig trick?

Very much easier, an addon. Butt those will not be submitted to Opera/Google as they block those methods in future updates. If you want it, PM me, and I'll see what I can do.
