Description

Hi there, as a new user searching for datasets, I was expecting that tags would also be searched, and possibly even be prioritized in the search results?

Searching on https://new.openml.org/search?type=data&status=active for OpenML-Reg19 does not return the 34 datasets with this tag.

It does return 24 other datasets that I cannot link to the search query. I checked the JSON and XML descriptions, and they do not seem to contain the search string. I'll make a separate issue for this observation.

Research direction

Start from the general search page at https://new.openml.org/search?type=data&status=active and reproduce a search for OpenML-Reg19. Check how the 34 tagged datasets are handled, then make tag matches appear in the results; whether tags should be prioritized remains to be decided. Verify that the search no longer omits datasets with this tag.
