> [@codinghorror](#): > > Remember, this entire topic is based on a bug, namely SHOW MORE did not appear, as documented about 12 times so far… I’d focus on that first. Can you find a repro? Because clearly that happened, and to fix it, we need a repro. > [@TechnoBear](#): > > I would have to disagree with your assessment. The topic is based on the fact that a number of us have experienced real difficulty in using Discourse search and would appreciate some improvements. > > The “show more” bug emerged in the course of this discussion, and was reported as a bug here: I just want to point out that the work @sam has done up to this point for ?search=search\_terms\_here is a big step in showing that the current narrow viewport doesn’t actually show everything! Every time I find a search that is three items, I then use the ?search=same\_terms and I get a full list! I seem to always get more items when I utilize that method.
