ctrl+F no longer working in 101.3?

[cogerk]

I updated from 101.1 to 101.3 last night, and since then Ctrl+F has stopped working when I'm writing notes. Has anyone else observed this? Is it a new hotkey now?

Hi @cogerk! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the Trilium team.

Yes, this is a known issue in 101.3. Ctrl+F stopped working in editable notes because the CKEditor "FindAndReplaceEditing" plugin, which powered search in the editor, was intentionally removed as part of a transition to TriliumNext's own search implementation. The new search isn't ready yet, so there's currently no replacement hotkey or built-in search for editable notes. The maintainers are aware and plan to restore this in a future update. For now, you can use search in other note types (like render, doc, mind map, or read-only text notes) or use your browser's native search outside the editor as a workaround details more info.

If you work with code blocks, be aware that using find-and-replace (Ctrl+F) can sometimes crash the editor due to a CKEditor bug—clearing the find session before editing code blocks can help avoid this reference.

To reply, just mention @dosu.
