My best guess is that these changes are occurring due to the changing corpus of tool titles/descriptions/help text. (Search functionality hasn't been changed in some time.) I've tweaked the search parameters in -central changeset 18ab38e43d8b , specifically removing the minscore requirement, in an effort to allow more search results to bubble up. Best, J.

Dear Galaxy community,
I have noticed that since I have upgraded to the latest galaxy distribution (October 5th, b5bda7a5c345), the "search tools" function in the left frame doesn't seem to work properly. For example, in previous distributions, if I typed "fastx", it would display all the tools under the "FASTX-Toolkit for FASTQ data" section. Now, I don't get anything (but the FASTX-Toolkit for FASTQ data and the tools in it are still available if I look manually in the tool list). Similar problem when I search with the keyword "draw". I get some results, but I would miss some. For example, "Draw quality score boxplot for SOLiD data""Draw quality score boxplot", "Draw nucleotides distribution chart" (and some more) does not appear in the search results. I haven't tested all the possible keywords to search, but my guess is that this problem probably happens with other search terms.
The same situation occurs on the penn state instance of galaxy (https://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/), so I guess this problem is not related to my local version.
This is not a major bug, but I thought it was worth mentioning it.
Sincerely
