Can you give some examples of what's not working for you?

Project search autocomplete.

There isn't a generic AJAX search for the site... there is an AJAX project search as you mentioned, but that's only for searching project names.
Those are essentially categories for support tickers.
Try entering "virt" in the AJAX project search box, you should then see 4 options, Virtualmin Virtual Servers, Virtualmin.com, Virtualmin Framed Theme, and Virtualmin Mobile Theme.
I wonder if this was related to the https issue? There was another problem that trigger AJAX errors for not logged in users, and since visiting http rather than https leads to non-logged in session always (even if you're logged in on https), it would be easy to get into a situation where there is a permissions problem that logged in users won't see.
That said, non-logged in users should be allowed to search the issue tracker, and AJAX errors are stupid and always wrong (even if we wanted someone to not be able to search, we don't want them getting a nonsensical error, we'd want to say, "Hey, login in order to perform this action.)
Hmmm...so, unfortunately, I can't find what permission would apply for this part of the issue search. There are no separate search permissions for project_issue, but they work for logged in users, but not logged out users (I think), so clearly permissions are at play. Will keep poking at it, and leave this issue open until I figure something out.
