I have found out for some time that JoS Wiki's search is no longer working. I thought it was temporary, but it takes some time, so I assume that it was not seen by the support. Thus I write this here, so someone would take a look into it, and fix it.

Steps to reproduce. There is only one step. Search for something. To simulate the search, one can go there (this simulates search about the Algiz rune): https://joswiki.org/index.php?search=algiz&title=Special:Search&profile=default&fulltext=1

Expected result. Search results will be visible or information that nothing was found will be presented.

Actual result. The text "An error has occurred while searching: We could not complete your search due to a temporary problem. Please try again later." is shown.

You can contact @ApolloAbove [JG] about this. He's probably busy with other projects at the moment, as the JoS is undergoing a variety of updates, but he will fix this at some point.
JG ApolloAbove wrote on his profile wall about this yesterday. You can just scroll down the forum main page to see latest profile posts, we often write notifications there.

But evidently not many people check there, hence the third post already asking about this and my second time replying about this.

Perhaps the latest profile post sections should just be Guardians/Clergy? I dont really check that section often myself because quite frankly it often has a lot of spam in fact recently I kept seeing someone's profile picture in that section which was a star of david and I hardly want to see that when I am in a spiritual mood, for non Guardians/Clergy profile posts should be something for those who follow them and those who click on their profile IMO.

Not an urgent change of course but as the JoS grows I can see the profile posts section being an easy way for trolls/infiltrators to post bullshit/blasphemy and have it mixed between legitimate information which could confuse those who are new, it dosen't seem to have the same sort of moderation and looking at it from a newcomers perspective I would assume its official correspondence which could be dangerous.

Not everyones voice NEEDS to be heard and I include myself in that, we already have the chat for more casual discourse the profile post section IMO should be for important profiles to post like Clergy/Guardians.

I think in time the forums will be easier to customize, such as having a side-bar of just clergy and JG's notifications. And my posts being easily able to be put at the top, it's usually just HP HoodedCobra's because there's no room for mine.

These forums are evolving and getting better all the time, we just need more time before everything will be perfect :)
