Description
Until many of the new phase of changes were put into place, my campaign players extensively used the search in campaign to find articles, images and maps. (We don't really use histories, so I'll be honest and admit I cannot verify that option)
However, no matter what I try. Adding the word being searched for to the title, as a tag, in the description, uppercase, lowercase, etc. Nothing can be found in any other category now apart from articles. It really hinders gameplay when the players are looking for these elements.
I know it used to work, because it forced me to take the privacy setting seriously, so I would ensure privacy was set correctly, and yes I have tried making the elements public, private for their group, but nothing works. And yes, nothing works for me as grandmaster editor.
Please, and I know you are working hard on new features and they are slowly improving, but please don't leave us with broken old features.
Steps to Reproduce
Go to https://www.worldanvil.com/w/aerisian-glydr/search?string=darkmoor
Login not required, as I have set elements as public.
You should see at least:
4 articles
1 image (for the image I have given the title, a tag, the alt text, the description, the art title, the artist name all the word darkmoor in lowercase - I also ensured that the tag does not have hash at the start - and it is public).
1 map (for the map I have given the title, the description, a tag, the legend all the word darkmoor in lowercase - and again it is public)
You only see the 4 articles. By the time you investigate you may see more articles, but I will leave these elements in place to help with any testing you might have.
And to repeat, while I have set all these elements to public to test from an not-logged in user state, I have also tested with a campaign player state and my admin state. The results are the same.
