The Redwood Release includes a beta release of the new Course Search feature. Course Search enables course authors to conduct searches within a course, or across courses, to find content. While it is in Beta, Course Search is not enabled by default, but Operators can choose to enable it. See here for more details about how to enable.

Info

Consult with your IT team to determine if the new technology that powers Course Search, known as Meilisearch, can be installed on your Open edX environment.

If it can be, we encourage you to use this feature and provide your feedback to the Open edX community. We caution that - because the feature has not yet had widespread usage - the search may not always return comprehensive results. However, we are confident that, even if result pages do not always show every matching result, that overall this feature will enhance your use of Open edX Studio.
