Description

... on browsers it doesn't recognize, and WebPositive is obviously one of these. Adding "nomo=1" to the query fixes this. This patch makes Web+ use this term by default.

I don't see how this is a duplicate. While certainly related, it actually fixes one of the sites affected.

comment:3 by augiedoggie, 10 years ago

Your patch isn't really a "fix" though, just a workaround. If I go to the url bar and type www.google.com it should take me to the normal(i.e. "classic") site.

A real fix would be to change the UA string so that all of these sites know that web+ is a desktop browser and then you don't need to modify the search url like you have done in the patch.
