Search function not working for me in Confluence

[Steven Vits]

Hi,

the search function in confluence is nog working for me.

It's working for all my colleagues but mine doesn't seem to want to search.

Does anyone has an idea why?

Thanx in advance

Hi @Steven Vits, please try giving us a little more information.

• Is this Confluence Cloud or Server? 
• Is this web or mobile app?
• Where does it fail?
  • In the search box?
  • On the search screen?
• What does the failure look like?
  • Can you supply a screen shot?
• Are there any errors on the page?
  • Open the browser's JavaScript console to look for errors

Thank you for the reply,

This is in Confluence Server.

I work in the IT-department and we use this as a documentation tool.

So when I try to search in the search box it can only find documents I already accessed.

So the search box says:

"No results found for kws. Please try one of the following suggestions:

• Use more general search terms or consult the online documentation for tips.
• If you are filtering by space, content, last modification date or contributor, try removing or adjusting the filter"
