Search suggestions aren't offered (on my wiki)

At current, it seems I can only search for a template in TemplateWizard if I already know and type in that template's full name (wikitext editor, mw 1.33) For example, if I have a template "Category Link" I can't search for it by entering "Cat" or "Category", no auto-complete, search suggestions or predicted results come up, I type "Category Link" and nothing comes up. I type "Category_Link" and my category link template comes up as it apparently can't recognize spaces as underscores either. My job queue is empty, the template has valid TemplateData with a valid description viewable via the api. A null edit to the template page itself did nothing to help the template data show up per the TemplateData documentation so it is not that:

Help:TemplateData#Limitations and feedback


I see a "search" icon (magifying glass) and "search for a template" text in the field but no searching is possible. I tried rebuildall.php, and rebuildtextindex.php still won't work. There is nothing on the extension documentation page on search feature config... I'm at a loss.

Am I missing something? Is there some maintenance script that needs to be run every time a template with template data is added? There is nothing on the documentation page that suggests how to get new templates with valid template data recognized.
