Hi Brad, is there any way this fix can be backported to Craft 2?

Unlikely... the fix was part of a much larger refactoring.

<p>At the moment I'm working on my first Craft CMS project. There I have two different locales that share the same assets folder.</p>

<p>The assets can be seen and used between the different locales but when I try to search I only get results in one locale. This is strange because they show up in the full list when selecting that locale.</p>

<p>Any tips? Did I miss a certain setting?</p>

No assets found when searching in different locale

At the moment I'm working on my first Craft CMS project. There I have two different locales that share the same assets folder.

The assets can be seen and used between the different locales but when I try to search I only get results in one locale. This is strange because they show up in the full list when selecting that locale.

Any tips? Did I miss a certain setting?
