Describe the bug
If no search language is selected in configuration before making a search no option bar is displayed

@benbusby commented on GitHub (Nov 7, 2021):

This actually would be part of the feature request in #298, since that would involve fully replacing the Google returned search bar settings with one defined in the Whoogle header template itself. It's not really a bug with Whoogle, it's more of a limitation with how Google formats results for the no-JS version of their response page.

Merging with #298.
