Search in Text = your search timed out

Siavahda · 08-26-2024, 02:26 AM

Every time I try to run a search for a word across all my books, I get a number, but when I go to see the results, it's ALWAYS 'your search has timed out'. If I click the 'retry' option, it tells me there's no results, despite having 3000+ listed at the top of the page.

All my books should be indexed. I have 20GB free. I'm running 5.15.1.1 (and don't want to update because of the horror stories.) Restarts make no difference.

Anyone have any ideas? (If so, please explain like I'm five...)

Have you recently added new books? I had a search related problem once, as I dumped a number of books to the device. It fixed itself on its own. No other ideas, sorry.

A couple, but they should have been indexed by now. When I check it says there's no indexing in-progress, so I don't think it's that... Thanks though!
