The "Search this forum" feature returns results for forum <blank> #13

Open PrismaticRealms opened 1 year ago

The "Search this forum" feature (and the Advanced Search feature to search within specific forum(s)) returns results from my selected forums AND from forum(s) that "have no name".

For example, searching for the word "font" within the forum Website Feedback And Support will return 60 search results, only 9 of which are actually found within the forum I want to search in (Website Feedback And Support.) The remaining search results come from Forum: , according to the 2nd column of the search results page. When I click on some of these other search results, I am either transported to a post found in the CX16 General Chat forum (which I didn't want to search in), or I am shown a page with the following message: "You are not authorised to read this forum."

Not sure if this is by design, but it was confusing until I understood what I was looking at. I decided to report it as it is probably an issue that needs to be taken a look at.

Hmm. It looks like there are some index tables somewhere that might need updating. At this point, that's pretty low on the list of things to do, but I'll keep this issue open so that I can look at it when time allows.

Thanks.
