Description
I'm not quite sure if this has been reported yet, sorry if it has already - but the search bar on /themes/ in the header doesn't work
I really like the new position though

Morning @ryelle !
When I go to /themes/ and search for anything, such as "blog", it adds /search/? to the URL bar, the page then refreshes but nothing happens - the theme list doesn't filter for "blog"
I'm still having the issue this morning

@themeeverest What browser & OS are you using? It should be adding /search/blog/
to the URL as you type, and filtering the themes. If you hit enter it might add a ?, like /search/blog/?
, but it should still return themes.

Hi @ryelle it only adds ? currently, really weird.
I'm on a Macos Monetery and I've tested in Safari/Chrome/Firefox
It adds /themes/? no matter what I write in
On mobile (IOS) it works the first time i search, the second time it doesn't, then the third time it works again
What I mean by that is that it goes like this:
1st: Type blog -> Search -> works as expected
2nd: Type blue -> search -> revert the text to blog and searches for blog again
3rd: Type red -> search -> works as expected
Anyways if I'm the only one having this issue then it could be some local cache or something idk
Thanks for the report, @themeeverest! I see the search filtering correctly as I type a query, but if I hit enter the search page does not load - is that the issue you're seeing?
For example, the page at https://wordpress.org/themes/search/twenty/ does not show any results.
I think this is because the search box was removed from these "interior" pages as part of #7036.
