After upgrading from version 10 to 12 I’m finding that the search component goes in and out depending on how long a page has been open. On our Master Page we have a search component that is used throughout the org. If a page is open for a while, the search stops working. Once the page is refreshed, the search starts working again.
I can see that refreshing is a simple enough solution, but if there’s a way to fix it so that it works all the time, please do.
