      Description

      If you index content with file index on, and then turn it off, individual files show as rows in search results.

      Old:
      If you go to https://moodle.org/search/index.php?q=* without being logged you get a "normal" list of results, if you instead perform the same query (just a wildcard) the first results pages are files attached to results.

      Eric Merrill, I'm setting this as a bug because if I remember correctly files shouldn't be returned as results, but the document they belong to instead.
