Am I using Atlassian Support incorrectly or is the search feature completely broken?

Question

I am trying to find information on setting a context path for Jira 7.13.  I google it, and I get info on version 8.x

I go to Atlassian support, find documentation for 7.13, enter context path, get zero results.  This happens frequently.

I enter JQL - SOMETHING needs to be returned, right?

0 hits.

Try it yourself: https://confluence.atlassian.com/search/?productName=Jira%20Software&productVersion=7.13&queryString=jql

Please someone tell me there is a better way.

I appreciate it, thanks - my search example is literally just JQL, with nothing to narrow it down.  There should be tons of hits.

Hi Rob, i feel your pain. at times i have experienced search issues on the Atlassian site as well. I cannot say for your specific search what should be returned. Just wanted to confirm that at times the search is less than stellar. :-(
