Search by group name not longer working
Summary
Search (via navbar) no longer returns any results when searching by group name since we upgraded to v10.
Some background: We use group names to represent our clients. For example Acme Co/website
so most of our projects are just called website
. This makes searching for projects very difficult.
Steps to reproduce
Perform a search by group name using the search in the navbar.
Doesn't work - https://gitlab.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search=Z+Creative&group_id=&project_id=&repository_ref= Works - https://gitlab.com/explore/groups?utf8=%E2%9C%93&filter=Z+Creative
What is the current bug behavior?
No results are returned.
What is the expected correct behavior?
Should show results that contain the group name. Easy fix would be to append the group name to the project name when searching for projects.
Apparently this was fixed 2 years ago - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/1867#note_11971722
