In the plugin portal I have tried all kinds of combinations including just "Java" and "java" and it does not bring back anything. I used to be able to search for "wadechandler" and could find my specific modules, and this does not work either. I have set this to P1 as it makes the plugin portal pretty hard to use by not being able to search for specific types of utilities.

Gotcha...I searched IZ, but didn't limit my search to only the pluginportal...bad Wade bad Wade. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 96653 ***
