I would like to set startpage as the default search engine in Firefox Focus but I don't understand what to enter in the "search string to use" field. (Search string correction!)

Marking as "Solved the problem", which had been the intention all along. Apologies for missing the forum, as the original had been asked in Firefox Focus.
