Title: Search "In this topic" works well for admin, but not for regular members
Post by: gasman on August 08, 2023, 07:57:37 AM
Hi all -I posted this issue a year ago, but still no resolution. Posting again to see if anyone can shed some light.

My users get zero results when they use the quick search restricted to "In This Topic".

Forum: good-music-guide.com/community (https://good-music-guide.com/community)
SMF 2.1.4

I have search allowed for guests, all users

Search is set to Fulltext index, and the index is created. I have enabled Force the Use of a Search Index.

All users can search the "Entire Forum", and within "This Board". 

Admin can search within "This Topic" and get good results. 

The Problem: Other users get zero results when searched within "This Topic", despite using the same search words as Admin.

All boards and all topics are visible to all users and guest.

Ad management mod, and some customised graphics, nil other mods.

Why does search within "This Topic" work for admin but not other users?

Cheers

it's a known issue - still not fixed.   I reported the same thing with breakdown.
