Issues with search function on utopian.io
Utopian.io has a search function that allows to search for projects, bugs and more.
Searching for anything more than simple words, easily confuses the search.
Testing Environment
- OS X
- Firefox 57.0
Steps to Reproduce
- Login to utopian.io
- Search for 'steemit'
- Review result
- Search for 'steemit/condenser'
- Review result
- Search for 'steemit/'
- Review result
- Search for '/condenser'
- Review result
- Search for 'condenser'
- Review result
- Add emoji to the search (e.g. 🍓)
- Review result (URL in address bar as well)
Exected Behavior
Search function delivers desired results.
Illegal characters should be escaped or ignored instead of being passed unfiltered to the URL.
Actual Behavior
Search function finds project names, author names, but not the combination as it is shown on the page, such as 'steemit/condenser'. Also, the search adds characters unfiltered to the URL, while I believe they should be escaped to valid characters. Even emojis can be added to the URL.
