Search shows blank/white page for certain keywords

[Harry]

Anyone else experiencing this? It only happens for me when I search 'ltd' for some reason.

Edit: Only happens when searching from the home page. It works when searching within sections.

Edit 2: Also happens for 'Croc', as well as some single characters, such as A, B, H, J

Hasn’t happened to me yet, maybe try restarting browser

Tried on multiple browsers, but shouldn't be a browser issue anyway since a blank HTML page is being returned. Could you screenshot the search results for me (from the homepage)?

Spoiler: Image (just Chrome boilerplate code)

I’m on phone atm but it works perfectly fine for me atm

Should still be able to post a screenshot but alright. So searching 'ltd' works fine for you from the homepage?

Turned white for me when i typed in Croc and bot

 

[Harry]

My bad, no “Ltd” brings me to a black html page aswell but everything else works

Yeah, it's just the 'ltd' keyword that doesn't work, and that's the weird part.

Wtf does that even mean

It's an abbrivation for limited, meaning a Limited company within the UK. It's basically an LLC, but in the UK.

Hmm, Croc returns a blank page for me, but 'bot' works.

It's really weird; my only guess is that too many results are being returned or something, and causing it to break, but there's pagination so I highly doubt that will cause the blank page :/

Edit: Happening for single characters such as ABHJ.

I've just tried searching for each of these words and it works just fine for me. If you're getting no results, make sure you're doing your search from the homepage because otherwise it'll only be searching in the particular forum you're in.

Is this still an issue you're experiencing Harry? How can I replicate this?

 

[Harry]

Mick I believe this was resolved a while ago and occurred when too many results were returned from the search.

Haven't had this happen in ages, so I think it's safe to assume the fix went under the radar (or some unrelated fix solved it).

Yeah cool

No problemo, I'll move this to the bug report archives thank you sir.
