      Issue Summary

      Disabling the Quick Search option from the menu   > General Configuration > Further configuration will break the suggestions and searching for a specific space on the Advanced Search page. We cannot search for a specific space by auto-complete/suggestions via the Advanced Search menu 

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Go to   > General Configuration > Further configuration
      2. Untick the box for Quick Search
      3. Save the change
      4. Perform a global search and notice how this will now redirect you to the Advanced Search
      5. Search for a specific existing space via Autocomplete from the UI dedicated box

      Expected Results

      We would expect search results to display the spaces matching via suggestions 

      Actual Results

      No spaces are found via suggestions 

      Workaround

      • If you know the space key you target (for example demonstration space ds for the recording) you can access the search on that specific space via direct URL
        <confluenceBaseURL>/dosearchsite.action?cql=space+%3D+%22ds%22 (just replace string ds with your space key in lowercase)
