How to avoid empty results page?
Hi, I'm pretty happy with my <libre-find.online> instance. However, I frequently get void results pages. If I repeat the search, either just reloading or adding !g to the search term to force a Google search, I'm getting the expected results. Setting Google as the standard search engine does not seem to be working to fix the issue. Is this a timeout issue? Do you know how I can fix this? Before I advertise my instance, I need a reliable service; otherwise, people quickly switch back to standard Google searches.
I have no clue why this happens, and honestly didn't look into it since a quick refresh has done it for me. Marking this as "needs help" for now!
I'm wondering if it's a race-condition.
Hi, the reason for the empty page is that no search engine is specified. I tried different presets of the search engine in the browser and in the config.php, but no results were delivered.
However, if I define !g or !brave in the search prompt, it performs as expected and delivers the respective search results.
Any ideas on how to fix that?

That isn't correct for me. I can specify and hard-code it to a single provider and I'll randomly get no (printed) results (and a crushed UI interface with the pages overlaying part of the input box). There's always pages though.
At first I thought it was my firewall and ad blocking, then when I tried public instances from my mobile connection, got the same, just now I added this line in my environment and works now, even though the results are not from Google, but I am getting results I am happy with till this is resolved
