You mean in new projects?
I'm not sure how that works exactly

Newest projects doesn't show every project, it just shows the most recent ones every 5 minutes or so.

Hey pekiyi, the Newest Projects channel on the front page only updates about every five minutes or so, as juststickman has said; likewise, it might be that it could have been there previously, but was then later bumped off by newer projects.
As for the search function issue: Scratch's search function is a customized Google search, which mean it relies on how fast Google indexes new pages for websites. This indexing process can take hours, days, or sometimes even months, so it will not appear in the search function right away - but be patient, it will appear in there eventually.
