Cannot search Forum Category Titles

    When searching forums, the search returns no results although there are category names that I know match the search.

    Any Ideas?

    I think it should be this way, I don’t think it is a bug or anything like that.

    Should it be in bbPress forum search??

    I looked in the bbPress Settings and the only option available was the option to toggle the search on or off.

    I could see it being that way by design, I was just wondering if it was created that way by design.

    Thank you for your response!

    I think it is that way by design, but we might think about adding categories in the search in the future though. Might need other devs opinions.

    I did a bit more testing and found that when logged in as admin, the search works exactly as expected, but if I am logged in as a regular member, the search does behave differently.

    I have a forum called Jazz Lovers
    with a topic with jazz in the content.

    If I search the forum as admin, results for forum titles show up as well as results matching topic content and titles. However, if I am logged in as a normal user, I cannot receive results for forum titles.
