what do you mean this is the way it is supposed to work ?
it is showing the word search and the title (instead of the search expression) it does nothing and display an error, how can this be a planned "feature" ? usually saved search will have a name at the menu and upon clicking it will search for the SAVED search |

Click the name in the saved searches (name appears in the search bar): Click Search (assumes you gave it a meaninful name so you can identify what it does) eg Code:
7Day Recent Edits search does:#edited:>7daysago ADD is how you make a New SAVED ENTRY |

https://streamable.com/x969b2 If this is not working for you, maybe it is a bug with the language for the name of the Search? |

it is not a language bug, i found 2 bad behaviors: 1. if i use double quotes (") in my name then they are not escaped and break the saved search 2. if i used a foreign language interface, saved a search that includes a translated word (like the language name) and then moved to English interface - the search will keep the translated word and will not work thanks for the help |

I had noticed this before, but I knew this was because in most cases I like to replicate the search expression in the saved search name, which can lead to some unexpected behaviour. Some examples: 1. Search name - publisher:"=calibre" Search expression - publisher:"=calibre" Output on search bar - search:"=publisher:"=calibre"" 2. Search name - title:~\\bthe\\send\\sof\\shistory\\b Search expression - title:~\\bthe\\send\\sof\\shistory\\b Output on search bar - search:"=title:~\\bthe\\send\\sof\\shistory\\b" 3. Search name - title:"~in\S+ble" and languages:english Search expression - title:"~in\S+ble" and languages:english Output on search bar - search:"=title:"~in\S+ble" and languages:english" However when one removes the prefix search:"=, they run without issues.
