If you've tried searching for a user and aren't getting results, either they don't exist yet or their account is locked.
Hashtag searches might say there are no results, but clicking on the hashtag is a good way to verify.
When searching for keywords, it seems to prioritize your posts. This is helpful for chasing down something you posted before. #CoSoTips
@CoSoTips My account says it's locked but I can't find how to unlock it.
Take a look in your settings and see if you spot this area.
Normally only Pro accounts have the option to lock accounts, so maybe a screenshot of what you're seeing so we can help?
@CoSoTips i can’t get search to work for me at all. I tried hashtags @‘s and plain words. Nothing happens.
