Bug ID: 526313
Summary: Start page doesn’t honour default search engine
settings
Classification: Applications
Product: Falkon
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
DESCRIPTION
The search engine used on the default start page (falkon:start) is hardcoded to
be DuckDuckGo. It should instead be the user’s preferred search engine, i.e.
the search engine the user has chosen as the default.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click the icon in the search bar and choose ‘Manage Search Engines’.
2. Choose a diferent search engine than DuckDuckGo and click ‘Set as default’.
3. Click OK.
4. Restart Falkon or enter falkon:start in the URL bar.
5. Enter some text in the search field on the page displayed. Press ‘Enter’.
OBSERVED RESULT
In step 5, the footer on the start page says ‘Search results provided by
DuckDuckGo’.
When you press ‘Enter’, the search is performed in DuckDuckGo.
EXPECTED RESULT
The footer on the start page should say ‘Search results provided by XXX’, where
‘XXX’ is the name of the default search engine chosen in step 2.
When you press ‘Enter’, the search should be performed in the default search
engine.
