Search autoFocus on Desktop
Hey all, I've set Homarr up to be my chrome new tab and it's been working great, however one thing I do miss from other new tab dashboards is the ability to open a new tab and start typing immediately.
I did some research and found that there is supposed to be a property in user preferences to turn this feature on (searchAutoFocus)? However I am unable to find this setting and looking through the codebase it seems to exist as far as I can tell but I may be looking in all the wrong places.
Additionally the setting is not in my session either (mostly assume because I've not enabled it).
Here's a link to the merged PR for the feature: https://github.com/ajnart/homarr/pull/1408 any ideas?

1.17 has no autoselect property, as our search now is a butto we would need to add a query param that enables the search by default. If you want this, please create an issue on GitHub (homarr-labs/homarr instead of ajnart/homarr)

Thanks @Meierschlumpf I had feared that was the case due to the way the search acts. Thanks 👍
