Hi,

I have a few problems with the Kobo bookstore on my Aura.

1) The search function seems to be broken. Whatever the keyword, all I get is "0 results found. Please try a different search term." No results in either the Bookstore or the Library.
I distinctly remember being able to browse the bookstore and use the search function about two weeks ago. What changed?

2) Before I bought a book just now, the Storefront was empty, except for the TOP 50. No possibilites of browsing. After I bought the book via PC (the first in my library, others were sideloaded), it's not empty anymore, just full of suggestions from the same author (makes sense), but the search function still does not function.

3) If I press "Bookstore">"Categories" on the home page, it tries to load it and then says "Network Error; Oops, something happened to your internet connection. Please check /.../"
NO. Nothing happened to my internet connection. It is fine. What the hell?

Signing out and back in does not help. A factory reset does not help (just deletes your reading stats despite syncing

). I live in the EU, if this might be the issue, but I doubt it, since I was able to search for and, presumably, buy books about two weeks ago.

I really like the device, so I really want to fix this issue. Any ideas? Thanks.
