New in this version

This minor release upgrades the Magento 2.4.5-p1 system to version 12 build 4. After release of version 11.5 we found the search results were not correctly rendered. This release fixes this bug.

Catalog Search yields no product grid

When you type a search term in the search box on the upper right corner (desktop version) the system presents you several options as a result. One of the options is the search term and similar terms. When you click one of these, the system must show products that match the term. This product grid was not rendered.

Total number of search results

During the work on the fix of the catalog search, we found there is a bug in the Magento 2.4.5-p1 version. The total number of search results is not correct. It turns out a Magento plugin causes the error when the back-end setting for the inventory is set to “also show out of stock products”. In that case, the plugin attempts to find out more information about the products, but it returns the total number of products in the catalog.

We have fixed this by introducing a new plugin that correctly counts the products resulting from the search. We have added a “TODO” so the IDE is able to find it once a new Magento version has a fix for this.
