This is an unofficial Extension which hasn't been updated in 2.5years -- unsurprisingly it's broken. The official DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials Extension includes search search from new tab functionality, is open source and regularly updated. This one is closed source and doesn't work.

Opens new tab as DuckDuckGo but the search box is not active. What a waste.
