How to make macOS Sierra’s Safari show the full address for websites

By default, macOS Sierra’s Safari doesn’t show a website’s full address in the search field. If that bothers you, it’s easy to fix.

  • Open Safari Preferences (accessible via the Safari menu) and choose the “Advanced” tab.
  • Check the box next to “Smart Search Field” for “Show full website address.”
  • Exit out of Preferences to immediately see the difference in a URL.
