Local People Results stopped returning anything

Question

I have a visual employee directory setup in SharePoint Online based on the "Local People Results (Service)" for my query results like most people here. Been working fine for years. Today.... returns no results. Even if I default to just (Contentclass=SPSPeople).... NOTHING. Anyone else have this issue out of the blue? I haven't touched this page or config in years.

contentclass=SPSPeopleLooks like the content class changed. Once I took that out of my query it all started working.

Hello All, I ran into the same issue. Resolved it by changing my query to read the following:&nbsp;{searchbox} ContentClass=urn:content-class:SPSPeople&nbsp;The others suggestions should work as well.

Same scenario, same issue. I decided to remove contentclass=SPSPeople figuring it would break the query, but it worked.Not sure why this happened. MS may have changed something? Who knows?

I was surprised at the number of complaints I got.... didn't realize it was used so much at our company. 😛

Did you change this in the "People Search Core Results" web part? I changed "{searchboxquery} contentclass=spspeople" to "{searchboxquery} " but still getting 0 results back. Was there any delay when you made this change? Did the crawl have to run?Thanks for your help!
