At least it has potential to annoy users.

• In NC 20 RC2 go to the apps management
• Search for an app using the search function
• The search now happens in two places:
  • Main view, displaying the apps
  • Top right search box

Describe the solution you'd like Maybe the search box should not update the main view in the first place.
Without yet having a long thought about this there could be a "more" button in the upper left search box results. This "more" then could display it in the main view of the app.

cc @jancborchardt, no suggestions here. This is behaving as intended. Might be room for improvements if possible :thinking:

Maybe the annoyance is there because if you type into the search field
something happens in the search box and inside the main content.

And in this special case it says "no results for bookmarks".
But there are results (inside the main content).

If one submit a patch for it please make sure to close https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/23062 as well.

I’d say a good solution here is that the search dropdown should actually show the result entries as well, instead of showing "No results", which is incorrect. When you click a result, it could show that app with the sidebar open, ready to install and/or view details.
