Broken search tag

For whatever reason the Advanced Search Box is completely incapable of searching for the Catgirl tag.

I didn't know advanced search existed until I read this post.

So I'd like to add that you can't find an advanced search button anywhere on the site for both desktop and mobile (if I am wrong and their is a place where it can be easily found, please let me know).

Lastly, the advanced search bar likes to input extra characters for some reason. For instance, when I try to put "nap" for "napata" at a normal texting speed (I'm currently on my phone), after inputting "p" the search bar spits out "napnap" or "napnapnap". It's only when I type out the word slowly does the search bar behave normally. I've tried it on both the mobile and desktop versions of the site and I get the same result.

Trying to search for nothing when the search bar is open brings up the page. I didn't realise it existed until the other day myself, opting to use multi-tag searching on my own, but for whatever reason I couldn't find anything with the catgirl tag. So when I found it, I tried using multi-tag searching with it there to see if it'd work, but it still didn't. So there's something up with searching for the tag.

So I guess to be more accurate it isn't just the advanced search box, but rather the search function for it. The tag suggestion in the search box leads to the tag page which works as expected. But if /tags/ in the URL is changed to /search/, which is what advanced search function and multi-tag searches use, it borks.

By the way this is still an issue, so I'm bumping this thread.

This is not a controversial tag and is actively viewable from the tags page, but being unable to be searched prevents multi-tag searches with the catgirl tag in, which also means being unable to omit certain tags from searches. A surprising amount of catgirl content is just a cosplay.
