Can't customize Google search bar using Nova on S8+

[AC Question]

Just upgraded to S8, added Nova back on, and inadvertently deleted the home page only, customizable Google search bar. Can't get it back on.... I can add the Google widget (not customizable, white only) to just my home page, or I can add a PERSISTENT search bar that IS customizable thru Nova, but can't seem to get back my custom homepage-only bar. What am I missing? thanks.

Welcome to the forums. Which options do you have in Nova settings - desktop - search bar style? Have you already tried enabling Nova Labs to get more options, including the Pixel weather widget?
