I'm trying to search for a story and I keep getting redirected to the Donate Page.

Is there some kind of a problem?

Please advise.

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

From what I can tell, the problem seems to be that when you hit enter, the site thinks you're clicking on the Donate button.

I'm sure it will be a quick fix for a Sith Lord underling.

For now you can try to turn off JavaScript while searching.

Firefox
Click on the hamburger icon on the top right [Open Menu] and select: Developer > Toggle Tools. In the window that opens click on the gear icon [Toolbox Options] and select 'Disable JavaScript *' under 'Advanced Settings'.
The page will reload and you should now be able to search. Make sure to uncheck the option again once you're done.

Chrome
Click on de three vertically aligned dots on the top right and select: More Tools > Developer Tools. In the window that opens click again on the three vertically aligned dots and select 'Settings'. Then check the option 'Disable JavaScript'.
You should now be able to search. Make sure to uncheck the option again once you're done.

PS: if someone online that you don't know instructs you to insert some code in these Developer Tools winsows: don't! Unless you know for sure what it does.

Edit: there's a much easier way... instead of hitting 'enter', click the 'Search Stories' button found under the advanced search options.

My underhanded approach to fund Sprites dress up wardrobe has been foiled, drat!

I shall revert the search to the results page, not the donate d'oh!
