The search bar on the Scratch platform currently needs to display projects or studios, which is quite frustrating for users who rely on it to explore and find content. This issue has been persistent, and I kindly urge the Scratch Team to look into it. It would be greatly appreciated if you could investigate the root of the problem and implement a solution. Being able to access a wide range of projects and studios is essential for enhancing the user experience and fostering creativity in the community. I hope this bug can be resolved permanently, as it would significantly improve functionality for all users. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Yes, it is an issue affecting everyone at the moment, and has been an issue for the past few days, which will hopefully be fixed soon.

no it isn't, it just sometimes shows with some things, most of the time only 1 worded things that are franchises

A few times projects loaded on my search, but yeah the Scratch team knows this is an everybody problem.

it still does not work, trying to load baldis basics projects and no other keywords are working, i even typed stuff unrelated to baldi and doesnt load, i tried to load it on edge, google chrome, and nothing worked.

site issue

When I try to search BFDI, it doesn’t work and I tried with something else and it also didn’t work


WHY SCRATCH

I do now know a solution of 2025: Search what u search then go into web bar where the link is and also first step add a dash - at end of thing u want then go into the site bar and remove the dash then it works

Scratch's search engine is currently broken, and all we can do is wait for it to be fixed.
Unfortunately, no one seems to know what's causing issues or when they will be fixed.
This affects everyone on Scratch, so the Scratch Team is aware of the situation.

For now, you can type "site:scratch.mit.edu (search query)" into a search engine like Google to work around this bug.

This also affects the Explore page, since that's internally based on Scratch's search engine.
