      Hi,

      Opera 33.0.2002, on Android 4.1.1. Can't work out how to disable searching from address bar. Can anyone help? Apologies, I'm sure it's really obvious but just cant find it!

      Thanks,

      Evan

        Latest version is 36.

        Can't work out how to disable searching from address bar.

        I don't think it's possible.

            This is not a bug.

              Ok.... what is it then? I can see how some people would want this but you can turn it off in other browsers so you get better results. They didn't design it deliberately so you couldn't turn it off did they?

                Afaik it always worked that way and it was planned to work like this.

                They didn't design it deliberately so you couldn't turn it off did they?

                Afaik, yes they did.

                    They designed the feature "search from address bar", but they didn't design the feature "turn on/off search from address bar".
