Allow searching of only local hosted files
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: andrewcatherall

Description:
When searching for multimedia on enwp using the search component, it also returns results from commons. I would like an option to disable this, possibly a small checkbox which says 'Only search files hosted locally'. Thanks :)

Lucene is at the end of its life, so I'm changing to RESOLVED WONTFIX. That said, I've filed an enhancement request for CirrusSearch for this feature. See bug 61061 for more information.
