The Search feature

[chris]

Is there something wrong with it? I searched for "youtube" and it only found 25 results.

I searched for "weird" and it only found 46 results.

Neither search found the thread called "The Weird Stuff On YouTube Thread".

The I searched for "weird youtube" and clicked the search for all terms box and it didn't find any threads.

If I am not mistaken (which I sometimes am) I do not think the search feature searches titles of threads.

Either way, there have to be more than 25 threads with the word YouTube in them...

I've noticed this as well, it definitely doesn't seem to be working right.

I noticed problems with the search function ever since that 'debug mode' problem last week. I think Lance said he had to rebuild the search index and that it would take a day or so to 're-index'.. but it doesn't appear that it has fully done so.

The search does suck, I admit it. I think the new version of phpbb has a better search. I will be moving to that in the future.

Any chance we can get a rebuild on the search database? Searching for posts made before the changeover currently yield no results. For example, search for Ultra Mundane.

Go to: ACM > Maintenance > Search Index

Delete both indexes and then create new ones. When I upgraded bangkoktobabylon.com/forum to phpbb3 I had to do this in order to get the search working again.

Thanks!

Looks like my last index did not finish.
