Bug: Search query incorrect results with Name "FYI 6"

[+lodgebarn]

This the query string generated with name FYI 6 and country United Kingdom FYI 6 Query. It does not return all the matching values maybe about 15. Furthermore if you refresh the page it will return a different number of results but never the correct amount. Same would be true for any number after the FYI. 

You can get an idea for how many should be returned by this query FYI and sorting by name. The FYI 6 query should return about 100.

Spaces normally work correctly, maybe the number is causing the problem.

I don't know what the "&r=" parameter in the URL is supposed to mean, but "NaN" as its value (not a number) isn't a good sign.  Something broke, and things usually go downhill after that.

 

I tried substituting 200 or nothing, but that didn't seem to change anything.  I'm just a gorilla mashing on keys at this point.

Removing the &r=Nan gives the same incorrect results. No idea where it has come from mind, I just used the search filter screen to generate a query.

Use a smarter URL (done by the old search):

Interesting and no great surprise. Unfortunately my real use was to be using the API which works the same way as the UI Search. Hopefully a fix will be forthcoming .

How should I know? This is the website forum, isn't it?

Sure fix the web site then the API will probably be fixed as well. I think it likely that both use the same logic at the back end.

Right, makes sense to me.
