Is the search function down in the Memories Gallery?

Hello. I haven't used the Memories portion of the FamilySearch website in a while. I am trying to search for uploaded family photos I saw there before. Even just typing the name "Smith" does not populate any results. Am I doing something incorrectly? Is the Memories search feature down right now? Thanks!

Hi @MaryB123

A change you might have missed…Several months ago, we still had the Memories Find and People pages—but those pages have been taken down while the Memories Team improves/updates the code for those pages. So you can no longer conduct any broad searches for Memories throughout the entire FamilySearch Tree.

We hope these pages will return soon.

If you go into your Gallery (select Memories in the top header, then select Gallery), there is a search box on this page. I believe this is the one you are referring to. Remember, though, this search box will ONLY search YOUR memories, or memories that you have personally uploaded.

I just played around with it, and that search box is working fine for me.

Please let me know if you are still have problems; if so, please provide further details and screen shots. Thanks!

Thanks, Amber! I hope the broad search will return soon, too!
