Including punctuation in the 'Search' field can cause a return of no results despite results existing due to search removing punctuation prior to searching.

For example:

There are several threads titled:

Restaurant defies judge’s closure order by removing doors, declaring autonomous zone: ‘Padlock this!’

Note the punctuation in "judge's".

If you search All for "Restaurant defies judge’s closure order" to find all posts reporting this story, it returns no results due to the search removing punctuation and instead searching for "Restaurant defies judges closure order" with the apostrophe removed from "judge's":

https://poal.co/search/Restaurant%20defies%20judges%20closure%20order

Shortening it to only searching up to the punctuation does return the results:

https://poal.co/search/Restaurant%20defies%20judge

Additionally, it appears that manually adding the encoded apostrophe character (%27) into the search link also returns no results despite correctly matching the title of the posts with the apostrophe present:

https://poal.co/search/Restaurant%20defies%20judge%27s%20closure%20order
