Website bug: search for "church" broken because of one book's messed up layout (probably HTML er

Rosie Perera

When I search for "church" on the Faithlife Ebooks website, it briefly flashes up a few hits but then they disappear and I'm left with a blank page, even though it says there are pages and pages of results.

This is repeatable, and at first I couldn't get it to happen with any other search term I tried besides "church" (I tried Christ, music, temple, life, faith).

Here's a screen capture video demonstrating what happens:

But then I paused the video right after the hits are shown and before they disappear, to see what I could see.

There's one title where the button layout is messed up (The Church Cure: Overcoming Church Problems).

So I tried searching for cure, problems, and overcoming, and sure enough, all of those words caused the same disappearing trick.

I was able to get to that book's product description page only by searching for the title in Google.

Looks like this might be the culprit:

Thanks for letting us know! I replicated the search you tried and received the same results. Then, I sent a screenshot to the dev team responsible for search issues. I'll let you know when it is corrected or I get a response from the team with a timeline.
