The compendium search is not working

Since yesterday, the Compendium search function doesn't produce any results. Frustratingly, it keeps searching until someone reloads the entire game. There is no way to interrupt the search feature and go back to browsing the compendium in the event that the search process has failed.  This happens fairly often. We usually just ignore it for a day and build our own spells and equipment. 
Having the same issue, almost seems to be happening more often than usual!

Same issue. First time that it happens to me thought. PS: Using D&D 5th Edition compendium.
Having the same issue, really wanting it fixed soon.
Same here, can't use compendium to search anything.
Yup, happening to me as well, reliable connection, not a permissions issue, just suddenly stopped working. ALSO! Mending is incorrectly marked as NOT a Concentration Spell, when it actually IS a Concentration Spell, as the PHB states in Longer Casting Times around Page 202; "You must spend your Action each Turn casting the Spell, and you must maintain your concentration while you do so"

How the.... could mending be a concentration spell? It has a duration of instantaneous. ALSO!!! Make your own bug report!
Same issue with the compendium not finishing the searches that are entered. Have to fill out monster/NPC sheets and character sheets manually.

The issue is being investigated by the Devs and an update will be provided when available. Sorry for the troubles :/
This same thing happened to me today. The search just won't find anything, but keeps searching indefinitely. However, this only happens on Chrome. I fired up Firefox, and it seems to work just fine. I really have no idea what this all is about, but for the time being playing on Firefox is a decent workaround at least for me.
Tried Firefox and Chrome, no luck.
Is this still happening for others? Searching the compendium still doesn't seem towork.

It's no longer working on Firefox for me, either. I swear it did yesterday, and even today I got it to work like two or three times by refreshing (only on Firefox, though). EDIT: And as soon as I hit send, it's working for me on Firefox. This is quite clearly black magic.
