Search doesn't work at all.

[billw2012]

I just get 404 page regardless of what I search for on the demo pages and my own.
My pages: https://sparker95.github.io/Vindicta/

same issue here

I copied search.html and search_data.json into the docs folder and search works as expected.

@christodoulos Do you publish to a GH page with a repository similar to your username or a arbitrary public repository? If it is public, maybe you can share a link?

I copied the files as you suggested, but search still returns a 404: https://pdmlab.github.io/docker-compose/

This is my docs folder: https://github.com/PDMLab/docker-compose/tree/use-read-the-docs-theme/docs

There is no search box there. Am I missing something?

This is my docs folder: https://github.com/PDMLab/docker-compose/tree/use-read-the-docs-theme/docs

I get a 404 error following the link

@christodoulos I've switched to Vuepress for my docs.

Thank you for putting this all together and making it happen!

In my project, https://kunguz.github.io/odak/, I use your theme. I configured it by adding:

https://github.com/kunguz/odak/blob/40bc94f2bb256b535ea7d4008eb9555c51f65197/docs/_config.yml#L1

Note that this page is Github project page. I installed the site using:

mkdocs gh-deploy --clean --config-file mkdocs.yml

I have copied the search.html and search_data.json to the docs folder as suggested. Here are the symptoms that I encounter in my case:

• Search directs the query to https://kunguz.github.io/search.html?q=installation rather than https://kunguz.github.io/odak/search.html?q=installation.
• Even if I manually pass https://kunguz.github.io/odak/search.html?q=installation to the address bar of my browser, the search is stuck at searching.... It does not return any result.

Same symptoms as @kaanaksit

First of all, thanks everyone for reporting and helping with this.
I believe I have fixed the couple of different issues there was in the search feature, and it should not be working by default in all new builds (so that they grab the latest version of this theme).
If anybody could confirm it's working, or not, for them that would be fantastic, thanks!
