Server Version#: 1.25.3.5409 Player Version#: 4.74.1 I don’t want this post to come off negatively as i’m sure everyone has put a lot of time and effort into the new search and from my quick testing it’s quite good and I really love the fact it keeps a recent search history and caches the result w…

Thank you @RealJerk for your thorough and constructive feedback! We really appreciate it! We are planning on further improvements in search. However, I can’t provide any ETA for when.

@RealJerk - an excellent explanation and examples to why the new search is not ideal for maintenance purposes. I rarely use the search function except in maintenance, and I didn’t realize how often that was until the last few days. As you say, everything maintenance related is one or two more clic…

This search clearly doesn’t work right, my friends and family are all confused. For example, I search for ‘the office’ and the version I am expecting is nowhere to be found, yet it’s in the library: [image] [image] …

Thanks @xenago . Looks like the [Extended] version is taking over the split.

Let me know if there are any logs etc I can provide to help. Is there a way to revert this and display the results as they were before, without the results being collapsed together, and a full browsable page? It’s very small and hard for people to read, even when the results are correct.

I would like to add my dissatisfaction with the new search on Web. I have two large music libraries, and with the old search, I would enter a term, hit return, and the results from both libraries would appear. Now I have to choose which library to search. This is REALLY annoying. Is there any way to…

Sorry, one more question. I’m running PMS 1.25.5.5492 Is 1.25.4.5487 the prior version? I run on Ubuntu Linux, BTW. Is there any reason I should not install 1.25.4.5487 so that I can restore proper search functionality? I really hope the Plex devs restore the prior search capabilities, and then ad…

Rolling back the server won’t change the Web client at https://app.plex.tv so it’ll have no effect rolling the server back. However, you can still use the legacy search functions via the embedded Web client on your server ( http://x.x.x.x:32400/web/index.html )
