Address Bar Not Working in Safari

My address bar is not working properly in safari, I can't click on it and type the address manually, which is quite annoying. I deleted the safari plist file in library but still no luck. Found a temporary solution from http://osxdaily.com/2016/01/05/fix-safari-freezing-address-bar-use/ which is to disable smart search features that fixed my problem, however is there a way that can resolve the problem without disabling these features? I'm using a MBPR 2012 with El Capitan and never had this problem before.

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Or you can use your Apple ID to register with this site and go the Apple BugReporter. Supposedly you will get an answer if you submit feedback.

I uninstalled the Duck Duck Go extension from Safari and my probably was instantly fixed.
