Redmine

I would personally love this feature as well. Often I have to perform searches to see whether or not an issue has already been created. It would be great to be able to filter out all closed issues, or at least for the icon to indicate the issue status (like it does on the Activity page).

Done in r2256.

Is there any way you could apply this to the Classic theme too?

Nevermind. It is there. I just forgot to clear my cache.

Even with a relatively small amount of tickets, not being able to search only open tickets is pretty annoying.

I love Redmine and use it everyday but this is the single most annoying part of the application. You have to filter mentally / manually the closed tickets from the open ones...
I'm actually quite shocked that this is not yet implemented. Is there a way to pledge and donate for a particular feature?

As the number of closed tickets grows, your search result gets polluted by those old tickets and there is more everyday.

+1

+1 Search only open or only closed issues would make search actually useful for our team.

• The search page can use the same filtering mechanism of the issue page (including the options e group by sections), with this we can refine the search using a "familiar" interface for the user.
• It would be great if the search can be made ignoring accents, in languages like Portuguese we use a lot off then but wen searching you never now if it was used or not.
• Can use regex for advanced searches .

+1. I almost always want to search only open issues and so today I rarely use the search box; I have to go through the filter interface instead, which is cumbersome.

+1 for improved search otptions from global search

Please think about this feature !
We that use accented characters have a lot of problems in search because nowadays as the search works, words like Índia , índia , india are different !
To us is very difficult to find something in a big project, because you never now how people wrote the name.
Please solve this issue in the next version.
Thanks for your great work.

Ok, my bad ..
This was happening by a misleading on Redmine/MySQL configuration. I had in Redmine Latin1 configured and on MySQL UTF8, after the correction the searches are ok.
But my vote to this Issue is still valid because we need a better way to refine the queries over huge bases of issues.

Well I would agree that the search could be pretty improved.
