Hi,

We are running RB 2.5.16 and have noticed some changes in the search functionality from previous versions.

What is the intended behaviour of the search?
Should the Search API and/or the "quick search" include review requests marked as submitted?
If not, when was this changed and is there a reason for the change?

Thanks
Rob

Hi Rob,

We had a rewrite of the API resource backing quick search that aimed to make queries faster, more secure, and to limit results on larger servers. As part of this, we went from building one of our queries to using a centralized convenience method, which had the side effect of limiting the results to open review requests. We'll change that part of the query back to how it was in earlier releases.

This change was made in 2.5.14.

Hi Christian,

Thanks for the quick reply.
Would it be possible to let me know when this change (back) has been made please? Or should I keep an eye out for the change on future releases?

Thanks
Rob

The fix will be included in 2.5.17 and 3.0.1. I expect we’ll get 2.5.17 out in about a week.
