When searching on 1.21wmf1 or later wikis, the bit in the search suggestions where it says "containing..." doesn't provide the text that's entered into the search box. Repro: 1. Enter search text "foo" on 1.21wmf1 wiki 2. Read the suggestions area Expected: option which has "containing... foobar" Actual: option which only has "containing..." Possible cause: deployment of SimpleSearch (see bug 29374)
SimpleSearch has been deployed on wmf for over a year, we only changed mediawiki defaults recently. Probably caused by a small error when SimpleSearch from ext.Vector was moved into core to replace legacy.mwsuggest.
This issue appears timing-dependent; with repeated reloads I can sometimes but not always reproduce in Chrome and FF on 1.12wmf1 wikis. It would be good to get this fixed before further 1.21wmf1 deployments.
Caused by a number of small issues unrelated to mediawiki.searchSuggest, it just happend to trigger them in a combination exposing them this way. Fix in I4649ec0c89d38c4d79d1dceec28227902cd48d32.
