As far as i know, this is intended.
When i am logged into aowow as admin, i can search for your examples.
A simple user cant, because they have special hidden flags:

[wodim]

Seems like a fool's errand—most spells and a big chunk of NPCs should be flagged as "hidden", but they are not. Why leave such a half-assed system up?

[Jinnaix]

Well, better flag this stuff as hidden then - afterall, aowow is a user database. Triggers, serverside spells and stuff like that shouldnt be included in searches for users.

Jinnaix got it.

though the tcubuntu instance is special and treats all users as devs. There seems to be some mishap when applying it to searches here.

@jackpoz
you'll probably need to amend

aowow/pages/search.php

Line 359 in c65bd88

if (!User::isInGroup(U_GROUP_EMPLOYEE))

with the user groups you default to in

aowow/includes/user.class.php

Line 12 in c65bd88

public static $groups = 0x0;

[jackpoz]

actually that's not the case anymore. I'm currently running TrinityCore#41 without any other custom change and with auth db authentication enabled, so accounts created at https://tcubuntu.northeurope.cloudapp.azure.com/ can login.

See here how the same url gives different results (check the Abilities tab, it shows 18 on the left, 9 on the right) https://tcubuntu.northeurope.cloudapp.azure.com/aowow/?search=holy+nova

[Sarjuuk]

alright, not a bug then.
