#8339 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

Plugin directory search lacks input validation that exists in Theme directory

Description

Empty search submission redirects silently, unlike Theme directory which shows validation error.

Steps:

Go to wordpress.org/plugins/
Click search icon with empty input
Redirects on same page

Expected: Should match Theme directory behavior—show "Please fill out this field" validation message on empty input.
