srredirects not working
Hi, it seems that srredirects is not recognized anymore as a parameter. For example, this request (https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?srprop=titlesnippet&srredirects=true&srlimit=max&action=query&list=search&format=xml&srnamespace=0&srsearch=intitle:"Liburn") returns a warning "Unrecognized parameter: 'srredirects'". --NicoV (talk) 15:43, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * This is removed in the new version.

Excluding redirects
not sure which genius thought this was a good idea: redirects : Include redirect pages in the search. From 1.23 onwards, redirects are always included. (removed in 1.23)

I need to do a search that automatically excludes redirects, and it's now no longer possible. Why? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hoggle42 (talk • contribs) 10:31, 23 October 2014‎

title search is disabled
Why I get this error code when I try to use  param? For example here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=search&srsearch=wikipedia&srwhat=title&srprop=timestamp&continue= --Mladifilozof (talk) 19:25, 20 October 2015 (UTC)


 * I can't offer any insight into why CirrusSearch works the way it does, but based on the CirrusSearch help, it looks like you can leave  blank and just use   instead. That certainly appears to work, as you can see here. – Robin Hood   (talk)  20:09, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Limit
Hi there, it seem that there is an internal limit in the number of the search results which is 10000. How can i work around this? --Aschroet (talk) 17:52, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Is the same also with search page. Bug or limit? --ValterVB (talk) 18:10, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Having the same problem. Maxes out at 10000. -- GreenC (talk) 04:33, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
