Description

Hi, since version ~28 of Nextcloud (AIO) the fulltextseach hits shown in the search results are linked to the folder continaing the file with the hit but do not open the file itself anymore. How can I fix this?

Kind regards,
Josef

Research direction

Start by reproducing the full-text search result behavior on Nextcloud around version 28 and inspect how result links are built. Compare the linked folder target with the expected file target; the issue is done when a hit opens the file containing the match rather than only its containing folder.
