#7044 closed defect (bug) (worksforme)

The search URL is not working as expected.

Description

When I perform a keyword search, I receive the expected results. However, if I remove the keyword from the URL, the search URL becomes dysfunctional and appears unusual. In light of this, I would like to request if it is possible to redirect to the homepage or provide an option to perform a search from there.

Can you please check video URL, https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/18149479?key=3e589a4c970acda2086374870beb6b54

Hello @Otto42

Yes, I can see that there is an issue with the search page as shown in the video. It appears to be a server-related problem that needs to be addressed. I recommend investigating and resolving this issue to ensure the proper functioning of the search page.

No, as in that I'm unable to reproduce the problem. I see your video, but I can't make it happen again. The issue does not occur on the site, as far as I can tell.

Just noting; the failure shown within the video is out of our control - This functionality is provided by Google custom search and we have no insights into it.
