Hi ! I have the same issue as I stated here : https://askubuntu.com/questions/1061855/ubuntu-18-04-and-tracker-files- properly-indexed-but-not-searchable-in-gs-naut
1. I installed tracker 2. I indexed all my data (as indicated on the command line by "tracker status" / "tracker daemon") 3. I checked whether everything was properly indexed by making some queries on the command line based on the content of some text files : the command line "tracker search" command did yield the right results 4. I made the same searches from Nautilus : they yielded no result : Nautilus (and thus the shell) only seem to use the "mlocate" database and not the tracker one. Hypothesis : the fact Ubuntu makes use of Nautilus 3.26 while the rest of the Gnome stack is 3.28 ? Actually, did anyone manage to get Nautilus 3.26 (and thus Gnome Shell with the nautilus search provider) from Ubuntu 18.04 to use the result of the tracker indexing ? I checked all possible settings in dconf- editor and found no relevant option.

I expect to be able to search files by content from Nautilus, because this feature worked in 17.10. 4. I get no results from full text search unless the search matches file names.
