Please fix the Issue Tracker Search

[_geo1]

I was trying to find out if there were any more issues reported concerning “previewArtifactID”. But the search does not even find the one issue I found through Google.

This is a really bad user experience. What does it search for if not the TITLE of the bug reported?!?

Bump, got the same issue here. Google is often better to find an issue than the seach on the site.

Please, also:

• Display the search result issues like on the main page (with date, vote count, status and affected versions). I often find issue for 4.x or 5.x old version when i’m looking for opened recent issue.
• Add the ability to filter and sort the search results like on the main page: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/product/unity/issues

And it’s been 2 days the site is very slow and returns errors most of the time (especially when sorting the issues by date: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/product/unity/issues?view=newest).

Apologies for these issues, we’re aware of both the search and the stability problems and are working on something for both.

Are you also aware that going to “https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/” with Firefox, logs you out from your Unity account? I can see I’m logged in during 1 or 2 seconds (it display my vote left count), and then it redirects to “Page Redirection To Logout”, then back to “https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/” but I am no longer are logged in, even on the forum.
I use Firefox strict tracking policy and uBlock origin. I don’t have this behaviour with chromium…

When I find a bug I just create it. Why? Things you CANNOT do with the issue tracker right now:

• Find by text and be able to combine with the dropdowns.
• Search by text and see the result just as good looking as with the other options.
• Filter selecting several options (version 2010 and up. version X and Y…). Important: Select all, select none.
• Using basic filtering syntax: - something. will not return search with this word. “xxxx” exact match.

Seriously, search on databases is one of the easiest things that exist. I wish I could do it for you. The pros are so HUGE for everyone, I’m really outraged to see it not evolve in 10 years.

With these four, we are pretty near a perfect system.
People will not generate duplicated bugs because they find them easily.
People will be aware of existing bugs and vote and follow them.
