I tried adding Brave search as the default search engine but upon searching something I only get brought back to NightTab

test

I tried several different search strings such as

https://search.brave.com/search?q
https://search.brave.com/search?q=
https://search.brave.com/search?q=%
https://search.brave.com/search?q=%s

Nothing changes

Hi, this is working as expected. To get search.brave.com to work you must also input the "Name attribute" value as q. So these values:

"Name": Anything you like "URL": https://search.brave.com/search?q= "Name attribute": q

Using these settings I am able to perform a search on search.brave.com. Hope that helps.

Yes, thank you. That appears to have solved it.
