Search not working

in progress

Jay DiPietro

Search is not functioning at all for me. Can't find any categories in 'relevant' 'exact match' or 'recent'. Super frustrating as I am forced to go to 'Everything' space and then filter to try to find anything via search.

Universal search across all comments, replies/threads/sub-comments. Search through old comments and chat, the search bar under all currently does not find comments but when I search the same keyword in the specific task's comments it highlights/finds the keyword.

Please see attached screenshots.

Hey, (old)!
Thank you for writing in and providing those screenshots! 
We'd love to take a closer look at this for you. Can you email us at bugs@clickup.com and include these screenshots again? We'd love to investigate this issue further within your Workspace! 🕵️‍♀️
I'll be on the lookout for your response! 🚀

When will search be fixed?

Sally Guenette

I hear all about the great speed of ClickUp to get new features out each week but the search function still doesn't work well. Could more time be taken to ensure features are debugged fully before release?
The search issues are listed in various bug reports here and have been a problem for many months.
Examples are search not working inside docs, in descriptions, comments, etc. and the exact match not returning results.
Thanks for anything you can do to speed bug fixes up and deliver non-buggy features. I think ClickUp is great, but it appears more interested in new features (probably to sell the company) than in taking care in what is delivered.

Search does not work

Michael J. Stallinger

Since a few weeks now, search does not find any 'relevant' or 'recent' tasks. It simply finds old tasks I'm no longer interested in. It does no longer display 'recent' tasks. Please fix this!

Public Shared Doc search bar is not working at all either. please fix this.

Jakob Schmitt

some tasks are not being found. AGAIN

Claude Barns

After exporting my workspace, exact match works again. Not sure what happened, something else could've been fixed in the meantime.

Jakob Schmitt

Same here! 
It's getting unacceptable.
After some minutes, I get "no exact matches found. Try relevant search" ... even though I am using relevant search.
See for yourself: https://share.clickup.com/clip/p/t2494557/537f970d-8fe7-4209-b8ab-d050e96a256a/screen-recording-2021-02-03-15%3A07.webm
Searching tasks using the filter function works though: https://share.clickup.com/clip/p/t2494557/d7c51e59-3c2a-4643-92be-07cc9e5d2bde/screen-recording-2021-02-03-15%3A10.webm
I'd really like to know: why are these issues with search occurring over and over again?
Also: Is there a rough but realistic estimate of when this bug will be solved for good?

Joe Booth

Happening again for me and my team

Marc Kilian

Same here. Search returns arbitrary results with no apparent pattern to what the issue might be. I am ok with having a Hangouts or Zoom with you guys to demo what's going on.
