Not working for me, still "No results found", no matter what I search for. Broken like the displayed number of owned games, the rating mechanism for games or the voting for game reviews ...

idbeholdME: Awfully suspicious amount of things getting fixed lately. Almost scary.
Scary, indeed, when after years for some people something of the broken core functionality gets fixed. ;P

Ice_Mage: I'm happy for you. I never had this issue and I didn't notice any difference in speed, but my profile page finally shows the correct number of owned games. So thank you for that, whoever is responsible.

Hirako__: I just check my games on the profile and it seems I got 3 different numbers - my collection shows one number, then the account drop-down menu shows 1 game less and the profile - another game less. The difference between the drop down menu and the collection(the actual content of the drop down menu - games) is so confusing cause they are the same thing, I wonder what cause it...
My dropdown and games library are the same number. However, the games number on your profile is *always* one order behind. So if you have say... 105 games in your library, but your profile shows 100, then your last order was probably 5 games. If you purchase another game, or more, then your profile games number will then jump to 105, while your dropdown/games library number will be 106 (or 105 + n games bought in new order).

If you want your games library, dropdown, and profile to match, then purchase a cheap DLC for a game or something that won't increase the total games count, but will cause the profile to update since there's a new order for it to be "1 order behind".

I confirm the fix. Now search through my order history works well:
I can search by keywords, filters and a combination of both; runs smoothly until the last page of the library (34 pages).

Mine are always out by one. Nothing to do with last purchase.
I eventually put it down to a DLC for Witcher 3, which I was allowed to grab to my library, not long after making an account at GOG, even though I did not have the base game at that time, and they have never been combined since I bought the base game, so the miscount remains, especially as that DLC standalone entry doesn't actually give access to anything.

Aw, shoot. Yeah, that's what I was talking about. It's not fixed then. My last order is indeed DLC. Thank you for the insight. I could've sworn the profile page used to be accurate, before the 0 games on everyone's profiles bug a few years back.
While the "Orders History" search works (well enough) now, the general forum search seems to be broken (again).

Sigh, GOG.

Edit: forum search always ends with this message (gogbear):

Order search is still broken for me. I get "No results found" no matter what search term I use.

Doc0075: I have a problem when searching my order history of selecting to view Unredeemed Gifts. I can view the first three pages of them but when I move onto to the fourth page, it shows no games and says that 'No results found'.
I also have four pages of unredeemed gifts but I can see them all. Hopefully it is working for you now?

For anyone still having trouble with the search, try waiting longer even after it returns some results. The search still opens a connection multiple times based on a short delay that us slower typers can easily exceed without even noticing. Or if you typo something it might start a search with the typo and then be returning "no results" after you finish the correct query, but it is not for that final query but the earlier typo. It would be helpful if they display the query that the results are for along with the results, but they don't. If you wait longer (maybe 30 seconds or a minute max) it should get the results of the final query (unless that times out, which was the main issue before I think). The results it gets for a particular query are then cached while you are on that page, although I think it should try again if the query times out (possibly there might be conditions where it won't).

PaterAlf:
Edit: Oh, I see you have quite a few more games than me so maybe they just improved performance enough for it to work for those of us on the edge but still not enough for anyone with even more games.

Edit 2: To clarify, the timeout that causes trouble here is not between our computers and GOG's computers (or the CDN at least) but internally.

Well it is still working for me, at least with my simple search term of - quake

That's what I used to test with when it didn't work, and the timeout, if that was the issue, happened real soon, very much sooner than it should have, which made it feel like it wasn't even trying.
I noticed that it is good to put a space (use space) at the end of the typed word or even phrase.
The search starts faster and is more 'efficient'.
The order search seems to work for me again. Let's hope it stays that way and gets fixed for everyone else soon.

Now I wish there were some additional search filters for redeemed and unredeemed codes.

I agree. This would be extremely useful.

These filters have existed for quite some time. Just click on 'orders history' and set the filters. See screenshot.

P.S.: The filters work just fine for me but the search doesn't work at all. No matter what I search for the result is always 'No results found'.

Timboli: the timeout, if that was the issue, happened real soon, very much sooner than it should have, which made it feel like it wasn't even trying.
That sounds like it could be a completely different issue than what I saw. I think I always got the spinner and I think the internal timeout is 15 seconds. It still takes over half that now that it works so it still spins for a while.

Edit: Oops, reading your message again I see is working for you now, but for anyone who isn't seeing it working and not seeing a timeout maybe the following would be helpful (reworded a bit).

I can think of three possible issues:
1) Browser compatability issue? I'm using Firefox on Linux with a number of changes and addons but I tried it in a fresh profile and it still works so if you haven't tried with Firefox (without addons, go to about:profiles and make a new profile or at least restart without addons) I would try that first.
2) Cache issue? I don't know enough about javascript to know how the cache is supposed to work but it seems like caching for more than just while the page is open would cause quite a bit of trouble so I doubt this is it unless you have a separate caching layer that is ignoring that the remote request should not be cached. Trying a search you haven't tried before would be one way to check this.
3) Something you did got you on an automated list and GOG doesn't let you use some more performance sensitive things (maybe just during major sales?). I think these types of lists tend to auto remove you after 1-3 months unless you trigger it again meanwhile.

To check the network request: in Firefox right click anywhere on the page and click inspect, then go to the Network tab. Don't reload the page but just enter a search term that you haven't used before. There should be a request where the file starts with data?canceled= so look for the status of that request. I guess an error status here could be either the timeout or #3 above while not seeing a request (or if it doesn't have a search= part with your search term) would be #1 or #2. Likely there are other possibilities too.

There is a search filter, unless you mean something else. I tried the current filter for the Orders & settings search with every box unchecked except for the Unredeemed box and it still filters out to show Unredeemed purchases (assuming the list displayed is complete).

However there was an longtime existing issue in that it would also show refunded purchases, even though that had it's own checkbox in the filter. Now though (as of yesterday, 01-FEB-25) it shows far fewer refunded entries. But the fact is, some still show under the Unredeemed search.

Although I haven't refunded many games (probably 8 to 10 in a 10 year period), this time I only saw maybe about 3 on the list during the Unredeemed search. I tried filtering with just the Refunded checkbox, but the results displayed seem to be incomplete, since it didn't show the ones from the Unredeemed list. Though I think there are a few more missing from either filtered list.

One thing I can't confirm is whether any of the lists are accurately displayed, since the list with all checkboxes is 35 pages long. For the individual word searches, I can get a better confirmation comparing the results to a simple search of my game Library.
