Comments.Text: It helps to have more information:
  
  Search is broken - Which search. How is it broken? 
  contributions is broken - What do you mean? Do you mean making a contribution via a CiviCRM donation page used to work and now doesn't? At what point does it break? 
  
  (links to PayPal and Stripe) just don't get anywhere. -> Are you using extensions to provide this functionality? If so which extensions? Have you upgraded them to the latest version?

Comments.Text: Hi Luke, in terms of extensions everything is up to date. By "search being broken" what I mean is that a profile form that has been exposed to the front end that allows member to search will take inputs (e.g. last name) , appears to go away and do something but returns no results at all. Same form accessed from the backend works (I'm a Super User as well).
  
  Paypal and Stripe, we have an entry form to allow people to enter their details and then select payment method. Then they are asked to "review" what they have entered, press that and it just returns the entry form. Again backend works

Comments.Text: I will change my headline , there is something in 5.72.0 that has caused the issue. I reverted my test site back to 5.70.0 and all the functions that I expect to work correctly do indeed work correctly.
  
  I then installed 5.70.1 , 5.70.2 , 5.71.1 , 5.71.2 and all was well. Installed 5.72.0 and , bang, contributions stopped working and the search screen just went round back to where it started with no results diplayed at all.
  
  So my "fix" at the moment is to revert my live site back to 5.71.2 and the try and work out what in 5.72.0 broke things

  After installing 5.72.2 we seem to have lost the ability to access Civi functions from the front end. Search is broken , contributions is broken (links to PayPal and Stripe) just don't get anywhere.
