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! -

I don't even use the search box, I search in the address bar - and the dropdown there does include icons for the search engines.

Don't have a drop down menu on my address bar,
I guess I am missing something.
If I had that would be OK -

Actually there is some sort of it, If you start typing in the address bar you get the suggestions as usual and underneath that there is a "bar" with the search engines you can choose from.

@sgunhouse said in Search box drop down menu:
Or you press the cursor down key
Don't understand "press cursor down key" !?
Now, how can I add my additional search engines as default?
As it is now I can add another search engine but unless I can add it to default search engines it will not appear in the drop down menu -

You can't.

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?

@fyrekrig We were thinking about a drop down menu not search engine manager.
As I said, you can't sst custom search engine as default one.

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
https://www.google.se/webhp?gl=se&hl=sv&gws_rd=cr&pws=0&uule=w+CAIQICIJc3RvY2tob2xt&dlnr=1When added turns up in drop down menu!
Thanks for all your help.
Now only make it possible to edit default search engines and I can start using Opera again. -
