Changelog Entry
Description
This pull request fixes a bug in the chats search modal where the chat preview would fail to load for the bottom search results or even the actual search result(s) entirely, especially when filtering by tags. The issue was caused by an incorrect index calculation that led to an out-of-bounds error when trying to access the chat list. The fix ensures the index is properly validated, making the chat preview functionality reliable.
Changed
Updated the loadChatPreview function in src/lib/components/layout/SearchModal.svelte to include a more robust boundary check for the selected index.
Fixed
Corrected an out-of-bounds error that prevented chat previews from loading for the last few items in the search results.
Additional Information
This fix improves the stability and user experience of the search modal by ensuring that chat previews load correctly for all search results.
