Issue Summary
The source code editor in Confluence no longer supports regular expression (RegEx) searches. When the "RegEx" checkbox is checked, the search behaves like a normal text search instead of a RegEx search.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open a page in Confluence and switch to the source code editor.
- Check the "RegEx" checkbox in the search panel.
- Enter the RegEx pattern </?p> in the search box.
- Observe the search results.
Expected Results
The search should find all instances of <p> and </p> tags, as these match the RegEx pattern </?p>.
Actual Results
The search does not find any matches. It behaves like a normal text search, which does not interpret the input as a RegEx pattern.
Workaround
Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
