Ticket: phpBB Native Search returns 1 match and one page of results

In the meantime use advanced search and search only within Message text or only within Topic titles.

Confirmed. I have applied the suggested fix and it seems to work.

The maintenance release 3.3.8 is officially released.
https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2623141
The fixes include, among others, an issue with the native search backend only returning 1 match and 1 page as result, and resolves issues with emojis in the subject line of emails and email based notifications.

I will wait a few days with the installation, sometimes these updates introduce new bugs which are only found in the wild after a while.

I have updated phpbb to 3.3.8 now. The search still seems to work although their fix is a bit different from the one suggested above. Please let me know if there are problems with the search.
