when searching for an item as super user, everything is fine and dandy. When trying the same search as anyone else, there are no results. Ive given the users every search priv. there is and still nothing

What contributed modules are installed? What types of content are you using? What theme?

Edit:

In my case the solution was to simply enable "search content" for the custom "admin" role. Even though this permission was already assigned to the core "authenticated user" role. If I recall correctly this wasn't an issue some time ago. Could this be a bug, that this permission is not given automatically to users assigned to a custom role?

Thanks,

Kees

Users need both "search content" and "access content" permission to be able to search content. I suspect that was the problem, and hopefully the original person figured it out by now, as it is nearly two years later...
