I was blocked by an ex but they still appear first in the search when I type the first letter of their name. If I click them it will go to their profile for second flash to a not available screen.

I don't even want to be able to search for them or see their profile for a second. I can clear my search history but that only clears what shows when I click the search without typing anything.

It's like the results are cached somewhere server side. How do I completely remove all my search history, cache, etc.?

  • The search results are certainly cached on the server side. You're seeing an index, not the live data. I expect the index will catch up in a day or two. You might try blocking them yourself.

  • I don't believe you can block someone that has blocked you =/ but cool I will check in a few days

  1. Open your activity log, click More, and then select Search from the left column
  2. Click next to the search entry you want to remove
  3. Click Delete

  • This does not work for what I want. It clears out what happens when I click the search bar and recent searches appear. But even with all that cleared if I type in the one letter I can still see a person that has blocked me, and they still appear first no matter what because I obviously searched for them a lot in the past.

You can see the option Clear search results last in the list of search results.
