SharePoint 2013: Tips for Troubleshooting Search Suggestions

Scenario

The search suggestions don’t show up.

Solution

Run the “prepare query suggestions” timer job!

If you set up search suggestions (as described in http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj721441.aspx ) you may notice that no suggestions drop down from the search bar. That makes sense, because they only appear after the “prepare query suggestion” timer job has run. You can force this via PowerShell like this:

Start-SPTimerJob -Identity "prepare query suggestions"
