I was just about to ask this lol. I'm having the same issue. Redirects don't work either. Now that I know it's not me alone, I'm assuming it's an issue that'll work itself out eventually. Hopefully it's sooner than later.--Cerez365^™(talk) 14:42, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

It's also happening with Special pages, it's probably something Staff members did yet again.--White Flash (Talk) 15:57, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

Yup, something they did. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 15:17, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

So... we can tell them no yes? Because these idiots basically made redirects redundant...--Cerez365^™(talk) 15:20, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

Not quite, I think that redirects used in articles still take you to the correct article. I in an article there's a link to the page "Hinata", it'll take you to "Hinata Hyūga". Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 15:34, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

Well except for those lol. I mean more of the search redirects. Looking for people with macrons in their names have become a real bother.--Cerez365^™(talk) 15:40, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

What the hell this is so stupid. I was also about to create a forum like this and I don't like it (the changes). —IndxcvNovelist (Talk to Me|My Wiki) 04:18, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

Remember, the "changes" Staff members make will only lead to useless, non-helpful things to the Wiki. White Flash 05:50, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, it would as well make us editors a hard time as well. —IndxcvNovelist (Talk to Me|My Wiki) 05:53, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

i just want to this search way to be normal, not using results.

!!!! my forum news is not stupid...

It's a glitch in the system; it's the same way on all the wikis.--Catero5 (talk) 17:54, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

Or, as Omnibender said, it could be on purpose...okay then.--Catero5 (talk) 17:56, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

It's not a glitch. They're doing it on purpose thinking that it's an improvement and instead of changing it back, they're making more changes to the function.--Cerez365^™(talk) 18:51, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

The search bar is having some problems again. Staff members called this an "improvement"? -White Flash-(Talk)- 21:02, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

Aye. First it was the search then auto-complete (although the image one is brilliant) But these were all done in the name of improvements.--Cerez365^™(talk) 21:43, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

I don't really see it as a hindering as I'm generally to lazy to look up chapter names or misspell words so this comes in handy when need be. Joshbl56 22:31, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

Everything was fine the way it was. It literally amazes me to see how Staff members are so opened towards changing and yet they never listen to what the users have to say what really needs to be change. -White Flash-(Talk)- 22:39, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

In my preferences i ticked Enable Go-Search and now it's back to normal for me. ¤S@lil ¤ (T@lk)☺ 09:48, May 29, 2012 (UTC)

oh really? then give us proof for the "normal" search. Kunoichi101 (talk) 23:10, May 29, 2012 (UTC)kunoichi101

I tried it and it doesn't work. -White Flash-(Talk)- 23:38, May 29, 2012 (UTC)

Kunoichi, when I clicked your link before, it took me to the search results but now it takes me directly to the page ¤S@lil ¤ (T@lk)☺ 10:20, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Not always by the way, I hope it's possible to remove this feature on this wiki.—IndxcvNovelist ^{(talk|contribs)} 12:55, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Always ¤S@lil ¤ (T@lk)☺ 15:18, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

It's not really always. I think it depends on the speed of internet. —IndxcvNovelist ^{(talk|contribs)} 18:52, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

no proof, it's still the same. Kunoichi101 (talk) 18:58, May 30, 2012 (UTC)kunoichi101

The go-search worked for me, thankfully, but the downside of this now apparently is when you use the auto complete for linking with parentheses the words "/original" shows up in the title. Kisame Hoshigaki/original for example and then there's the fact that if I search for Kisame it doesn't auto-complete to Kisame Hoshigaki but picks up the redirect page "Kisame".--Cerez365^™(talk) 22:35, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Thats not a big issue. Is it? — ¤ULTIMATE SUPREME¤(T@lk)☺ 09:13, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

Why did you replied to a week old comment? Staff members now fixed this problem. -White Flash-(Talk)- 10:13, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

I just saw that and I didn't know that it was fixed — ¤ULTIMATE SUPREME¤(T@lk)☺ 10:23, June 7, 2012 (UTC)

do you have proof about this? Kunoichi101 (talk) 17:45, June 22, 2012 (UTC)Kunoichi101

Not sure why you responded to a two week old comment, but nevertheless see here. -White Flash-(Talk)- 18:13, June 22, 2012 (UTC)
