Why logseq have no such function?
Difficult to find key word in help pages
Search in the current page: ctrl+shift+k
Also, if you open search, you have the option of flipping the switch at the right-top of the page, which will change the scope of the search to current page.
But it looks more like “database search”, regular “jump and highlight” is more useful for search in page, at least because of context

and no, it does not work when I’m trying to find keyword in help page (Keyboard shortcuts for example)
I’ve longed for a “jump and highlight” version of this as well
Oh, I see what you mean. I just tried it on the help page, and no good. You are right - it is limited to the db, and doesn’t search external pages, such as the Help pages. That’s too bad. A searchable Help would be much more helpful. 
I don’t know if this might help: I just copied/pasted the entire keyboard shortcuts page into my own page, and then I can search in it. Not ideal, but better than nothing.

We’re planning to add search to help pages (most notably the keyboard shortcuts page).
If you have other suggestions to improve Logseq, please vote for an existing proposal in #feature-requests or start a new request yourself. When you open a feature request, please be as precise as possible in describing the desired functionality and what you hope to achieve with it.
P.S. I’ve changed the post title to “Search in help page” as that better describes the question.
I hope not only in help pages. I would like to have such search in my pages too (“jump and highlight” version)
I’ve heard some team members mention that as well, so it’s likely that would be added across Logseq.
I’m curious, though: how would something similar to Ctrl-f (Cmd-f on Mac) on web pages be different from the current on-page search that Logseq currently has with Ctrl-Shift-k (Cmd-Shift-k on Mac)?
no, “jump and highlight” version of current-page-search
Got it. I’ll forward your feedback to the engineers.

Another workaround for keyboard commands that is not ideal, but might help: if you use the command pallete (Ctrl+Shift+p or Cmd+Shift+p), it is searchable.
Without context and results hoping, but well at least something
The Vim shortcuts plug-in offers search in page similar to a browser.

This should already be possible now that this feature has been released: https://docs.logseq.com/#/page/Find%20in%20page

such much search 
thx!
I love Logseq but unfortunately the search function in Logseq is still very buggy. Here is a video demonstrating an attempt to search for “water heater”.
-I first do a Ctrl-K search across all pages. It finds the correct page and block but it doesn’t take me to that block when I click on it. And because the page is quite long, it would be hard to find the block by just browsing through it.
-then I try a Ctrl-F search within the page. It cannot even find the block
-then I try a Ctrl-Shift-K search within the page. It is much slower than the Ctrl-K or Ctrl-F searches for some reason, and again it will not go to the block. I have to click on a sub-block that also has the text and then go up to the desired level.
video demonstration: 2024-10-08 buggy Logseq search.mkv - Google Drive
(and not in the video, if I try to do a Ctrl-Shift-K this-page search while zoomed into a block that has many sub-blocks, it does not show any results)
Visual Studio Code finds the block and takes me to the block just fine.
