Apologies if this is the wrong place for this post, but I'm having a problem with the search page on WoWPedia. When I search for anything that doesn't have an exact title match, I get no results at all. I've tried it in two separate browsers with the same results. Here you can see an image of what the search page looks like for me in an example search: http://i.imgur.com/rJwhNVw.png You can see that it does say there are matches - "Showing below 2 results starting with #1" - but it doesn't actually display any of the matches. It will display matches when there is an exact title match, but otherwise I get nothing at all.

I have the same problem, and posted about it months ago. Oddly, no one else seems to care! RustyShackles (talk) 11:14, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

It bothers me and many other people too, but it's unfortunately not something we at Wowpedia can do anything about. It's been this way pretty much since the initial Gamepedia merge. We're yet to hear anything from them, though. --g0urra[T҂C] 22:47, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
Curse updated the search functionality recently; it seems to provide more relevant results now. If you encounter queries for which the results are still obviously wrong, please post some examples here. — foxlit (talk) 23:10, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
