With 4.6.12 "search this forum" option is gone

It only happens in 4.6.12.

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.

There has now been a patch released for this. If you take a look within your admin CP, and go to support in the top right, you will see an optional patch available.

Well done @Marc Stridgen
