simple search engine


Hi,
Me again emoticon

Recently had a few members asking if its possible to modify the simple search engine to allow a less than 5 string entry.

A post can be submitted with less than a 5 character input but at present you cant search for one. emoticon

Re: simple search engine


That sounds like a good request. emoticon I had actually tried to search for a word with 4 letters the other day because I had forgotten about the 5-character minimum. I forget now what word I was looking for, but I ended up using Google with intitle:word and inurl:bakheva.

One of us will move this topic to Feature Requests once we know you've seen this reply. emoticon

Re:


It is a great request! That has frustrated me more than once. When I speak of my dog Lily in a title, I have to be sure to put LilyRose in the title or I will never be able to find the post again.

Many thanks for the reply LG and wasnt sure if this topic has been mentioned before.


It would certainly be great if this can be done, Image

especially for private boards who wouldn't be able to use google as a work around.


[btw i hope that four letter word you were looking for wasn't a rude one emoticon ]

You can put " " (minus the quotes) either before or after a 4 letter word and simple search will give you a proper result. It isn't perfect but it is way better than nothing and you don't have to depend on a 3rd party search engine. emoticon

I tried this out PR and, it does, and doesn't work, if that makes any sense emoticon

adding this --> " " allows the search to be done, but im guessing as the engine has never been configured to search for a entry with less than 5 characters

its never going to show any results either.Image

Re: simple search engine


I tried this over on Susa's board with the search term  lily and it gave 20 results. Notice that there is no space between the   and the word I was looking for (in this case the search was for lily).
