Search does not search the title of posts

+2
−0

The search only appears to look in the body of a post, not in its title.

For example, searching Codidact Meta for "determine" finds posts that have "determine" in the body, but does not include the post What is an easy way to determine my Trust Level which contains "determine" only in the title and nowhere in the body.

As the search is not looking at the title at all, this suggests the older Meta post Exact search doesn't seem to be searching in the title is probably just a special case of this more general problem.

Exact search doesn't seem to be searching in the title is a more specific form of this problem. When this post is marked "status-completed", that one should be too (unless it's marked as a duplicate of this newer broader one).
