Adding Search Engines

Is it possible to add search engines such as Wikipedia and Youtube?

Yes. Right click on a search box and select "create search".

Hi,


I erased the search engine from the tool bar (missclick) and I can't get it to appear again in the toolbar, i think it is very useful (where you can search in google,amazon,ebay, etc).
Can someone help me to get it again? What do i have to do?


thx and have a nice day

I have Opera 9 but I don't see those options to add search anywhere. I've tried both Tamil and undeuxtroiskid's methods.

It should be the second to last option in the right-click menu. I get it here on 9.02 just fine. I have custom searches for youtube, Google Video, Google Images, and a couple torrent sites.

See Opera 9 FAQ #3.

I just did #3 and have the option available now but it does nothing (nothing pops up after selecting it) sad

The right clicking the search box with the option to add the search form from websites is still missing also
