    You can edit the searchproviders.yaml file to use any provider to pin as a homepage search.

    @tucker19 I tried it out to add an additional search provider, as mentioned from @Dictynna-PHA.

    Edit the file ./config/www/searchproviders.yaml. In my case I have added the search engine "metager.de" at the end of the file:

    metager:
       id: metager
       url: https://metager.de/meta/meta.ger3
       name: metager
       method: get
       target: _blank
       query: eingabe
    

    The help website from that search engine contains the needed information like the URL, which has to be used (german):
    https://metager.de/hilfe/funktionen#selist

    Additionally, I changed the default search provide to metager. This is possible via the heimdall settings.

    Additional reference to an other issue, also with an other search engine example: #882
