Search no longer finds tags or autotags

Prior to the recent update to the Plex Web search tool, Search would return tags or autotags in photos, as long as you specified ‘Photos’. It would not find the tag if you were searching ‘All.’

Search All (from bundled version of Plex Web, Version 4.108.0):

Search Photos (Version 4.108.0):

Now that you can no longer specify ‘Photos,’ and the problem above has not been fixed, there is no way for the Search tool to find tags or autotags in Photo libraries.

The new search doesn’t seem to expose this under the dropdown results but it does have it on the full search page:

That is true. But when there are no results in the dropdown, the “View More Results” button isn’t displayed, so you have to know to hit Enter to get there.
