Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
- Have a private wiki (i.e. 'read' only accessible to certain users)
- Enable and use the Cosmos skin
- Attempt to type in the first few letters of an existing page in the search bar
What happens?:
No page suggestions appear
What should have happened instead?:
Suggested pages should have appeared (for example after typing 'Mai', 'Main Page' should have appeared)
Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):
Product Version
MediaWiki 1.40.2 (13bc5ff)
22:43, 30 January 2024
PHP 8.2.7 (fpm-fcgi)
Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.):
Likely because the API gets disallowed when the wiki is private
