search ottman, autocomplete works, but if i press enter the feed is empty.

no one would ever know to tap the channel filter. this happens a lot.

search should ALWAYS show results if they are available in another filter.

As an interim fix until we have the new search page and the combined results, hitting enter on the search box should

• show a searched feed if there are results
• load the channel search if there are channel results but no activities that match

@ottman is this on mobile? Web appears to be functioning exactly as you describe, type in ottman and a hover card shows search results and hitting enter actually searches

Correct only web, but the problem with mobile is that if you say search 'subverse' under the video filter, nothing comes up and most people would not realize to switch the filter.

Let's get this dealt with. Small change, high impact.

This issue is still a little muddy. On web, when I hit enter, it searches for activities containing the word "subverse", but it sounds like you want it to load the subverse channel specifically?

I mean this bleeds into Michael's new search mocks which provide both channels and content and groups in results. People would never currently know to switch the filter to channels. Maybe the temp hack is to auto roll over to channels if theres no content.

I think that this will require some architectural discussion. The searchbar its self doesn't load the entities, it just navigates to URLs in discovery.

I guess the task is to add some logic to change from 'all' to 'channels' in discovery when there are no results.

Issues with this:

• The user will be left in channels
• Do we show groups after if no channels either? Feels like daisy-chaining them is wrong but it is behaviour you would expect.
• Request spam

Possible solution:

Maybe we could return something like below from the api/v2/feeds/global/top/activities endpoint if no results are found for the search. So If all returns no results, we check for channels and groups on the back-end, then we then add nextType to the response to let the front-end know it can request that type instead.

This would cut it down to 2 calls between client and server rather than 3 (channels / group)

[
   "response": []
   "nextType": [channel]
]
