I'm using Metasploit. I tried adding the file 46731.rb to both /usr/share/metasploit-framework/modules/exploits/confluence/46731.rb and ~/.msf4/modules/exploits/msf4/46731.rb. Then I updated the database using the updatedb command.
However, when I do search 46731 in msfconsole, then it doesn't find any results. What am I doing wrong?
The answer is you're doing nothing wrong. Metasploit's search function just sucks.
The reality is that both of these files are available for you to use. Simply make sure you have run updatedb, open msfconsole and type one of the following commands (because you put the same exploit in different directories):
use exploit/msf4/46731 use exploit/confluence/46731
