Description of the problem
(I'm posting this as a bug, because I'm not sure whether variable modifiers are currently expected to work in search result tags. If they're not expected to work, please read as a feature request!)
Variable modifiers appear not to currently work with search result tags. When a variable modifier is used with a tag, the tag is not parsed.
How To Reproduce
For example, using the :limit variable modifier to shorten the search excerpt just results in an unparsed tag:
{exp:search:search_results}
{excerpt:limit characters='50'}
{/exp:search:search_results}
Another example (and the actual use-case which hit this error) is using :replace to modify the search result URL (in this case to remove the protocol, in order to provide a cleaner visual):
{if page_url}
{page_url:replace find='/^http(s?):\/\//i' replace='' regex='yes'}
{if:else}
{auto_path:replace find='/^http(s?):\/\//i' replace='' regex='yes'}
{/if}
In this case, the {page_url} tag is parsed correctly, and the :replace variable modifier works as expected (presumably because this tag is parsed by the Pages module itself, and not by the search module?). But the {auto_path} tag is unparsed. Without the variable modifier, the {auto_path} tag itself is fine.
