Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep/issues/2294

Describe the Bug

I recently exported my saved images to Karakeep from Pinterest and other sources. They had been in nested folders and so were imported with their relative paths in-tact:

Image

When based on the title, however, nothing shows up:

Image

Introducing a space, so / instead of / or substituting it for a - fixes the issue, however:

Image Image Image

Adjusting the search to include the / does not resolve the issue.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a file with a title including /
  2. Search for the file using the title:<title> syntax

Expected Behaviour

I would anticipate that the / character is either included or ignored.

Screenshots or Additional Context

No response

Device Details

Running in Docker on Proxmox VM

Exact Karakeep Version

v0.29.3
