Fulltextsearch for Wiki
It seems like the wiki content is not searchable with the global search
A wiki you cannot search for entries is useless...

This feature is now on the backlog. I will update you when we have more details to share.

A Wiki without Searchfunction is useless!

by definition a wiki is a website that allows visitors to make changes, contributions, or corrections.
Tick. Teams has that feature! Is it useful without being able to search it? Only if the wiki is very small. Will Microsoft move it out of backlog after more than 12 months? Please do. Surely it can't be that hard. -

This is an important feature.

Yes, this definitely needs to move up a bit. I was quite astonished when I couldn't search for something I just added to the Wiki. Hard to move stuff into Teams if the users can't find it.

How's the work on this new feature coming? It would be great if it could be moved up the backlog to the "Doing" column, since search is a common, basic feature to Wikis.

While it "sounds good" to have this on the backlog, I caution anyone considering this tool to do a careful assessment of its capabilities and limitations. I won't be using it because it lacks basic Wiki features (No Wiki Markup, No Easy Linking, Siloed Content, etc.)

Can we get this going please? The WIKI feature is useless without search.

We have migrated a massive Wiki knowledge base to Teams. but it is totally useless for finding content! This feature is soooo overdue.

I am very surprised this is not a capability. Search ability is a MUST-HAVE these days and especially within Teams.

Please re-prioritize this feature! We use the Wiki extensively and it will be a key element of adoption of Teams since you can keep personal notes, take meeting notes, forecast agendas, etc. It must be searchable through the command bar!

What lunatic thought that the Minimal Viable Product for a Wiki would NOT include the ability to search the contents of said wiki?

@Llia P. How does this differ from "add a 'Website tab' that provides access to your legitimate Wiki?" A cynic might suspect you're trying to drive traffic to your review.

One more time folks. I believe this is a dead-end product. I recommend users/admins remove the Wiki tab and add a "Website tab" that provides access to your legitimate Wiki. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/built-in-custom-tabs
Re: It is not really a wiki... Its markup is limited, you can't readily link from page-to-page, there is no search, its content is "siloed" within a hidden SharePoint library (hampering import/export), and etc.
