Dear Michael,

Could you please submit support request and provide some specific details about the problem you're experiencing? Please provide such information as the exact term(s) you are unable to find in the new term search and your complete search criteria. Sometimes only one criteria indicated may change search results.

That will help site staff take a better look at the issue you're experiencing.

Thanks in advance.

Bests,

Yana
