**Feature Request: Policy Portal Search Functionality**

While the new Policy Portal looks great and is a clear visual improvement, there is a notable regression in search functionality compared to the previous portal.

In the old Policy Portal, the search bar allowed users to search not only by **document title** , but also for **document content** when the _Document Content_ option was used. This made it much easier to locate policies and specific information within documents.

In the new Policy Portal, the search is limited to **document titles only** , which significantly reduces usability, especially with a large number of policies.

The previous content search functionality was extremely useful and worked brilliantly. It would be great if this capability could be reinstated in the new Policy Portal.

**Suggested Outcome:**  
Restore the ability to search within document content (as per the old portal) alongside title-based searching.

Agree this can be useful. We will add searchable tags and document content back.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback 🙂

I came here to ask for the same. I just realized that the full-text search is gone. I thought I was going nuts, I knew for sure that it was finding terms within a policy’s content.

This would be a great addition / feature.

Or at least search on label content.
