Google searches not showing in history

This was a problem long ago that seemed to go away, but it's happening again. Not every time, but often when I perform a Google search from the URL "smart" field, that search doesn't show up in my browsing history. No idea when or why this happens.


Any ideas?

Initiate a search from "Google search", not from Safari smart search field.


Click "Settings" at the bottom right corner of the page.

Select "Search settings" from the window that pops up.


Search Settings > Google instant predictions

Select " Never show instant results".

Now Google search from smartsearch field will be shown in the history.


Keep a record of this, incase if you want to change it back.
