Search Is Wonky


Website Feedback


Ever since the big update, search has been behaving oddly in multiple ways.

Wonkiness Numero 1) Indexing seems turned off.

Searching for "cheapy" from Messageboards. Change the sorting to "newest first". The last mention was on Saturday. I've made posts since then, so I'd expect them to appear. Don't close this yet.

Wonikness Numero b) When searching from User's page and going to next page, search breaks.

On the page with the newest search results for "cheapy", click Next to go to the next set. This works as intended.

Now we go over to Sean K Reynold's page. Search for damage. Change the sorting to be "Newest First". We actually just searched the entire website for "damage". This happens whenever we change the sort. Go back to the first link in this paragraph (aka: search Sean's posts for "damage").

Wonkiness Numero iii) Hitting "next" from a user's page goes to searching the topic for Everything

Hit "Next" to go to page 2. You'll get something like this.

This works as expected in Thread search, for example searching the UE product discussion tab.

If it matters, this is on Firefox 16.0.2.


Would this have been fixed by the currently-in-process reindexing?

No, these are different bugs and I was out sick and missed this thread first time around. We'll take a look.
