Mkdocs-material: site search NOT working with multi languages configed (en+ja)

[urna]

when i leave the [extra: search: language] empty, it works OK with english.

some people mentioned if set to ja, it could support Chinese, so i tried, but the site search not working now. here is site url https://english.thingswell.cn/

version info:
Python 3.4.3
mkdocs, version 1.0.4
mkdocs_material-4.0.2.dist-info

config:
theme: material
site_url: https://english.thingswell.cn/
extra:
search:
language: 'en, ja'

but if i only set language to 'en' it works!

Please see #1023. It‘s fixed in master but I’m currently on holiday until end of the week and didn’t manage to prepare a release. Also read the last comment in the linked issue.

Notes for visitors to this issue

You can avoid this problem to downgrade mkdocs_material-4.0.1

Let's looking forward to the next release. (4.0.3 or later)

Closing, as it is a duplicate of #1023.

Released as part of 4.1.0. Note that you need to change en, jp to en, ja. ja is the official language code for Japanese, lunr-languages switched from jp to ja and provided an upgrade path still supporting jp as an alias, but it would be too costly to support both in Material. Therefore only ja is supported from now on.

confirmed it works well now!
