Search problem

Post by jdogric12 »

I searched for posts by me that contained the words "here" and "there" as separate searches and got 0 for both. Surely that can't be right! (?)

There must be some sort of filter to ignore "common" words. I found that if I search your posts for those words as well as things like "too" or "and" it gets no results. But if you search for "separate" or "sunburst" it finds posts...

My understanding of phpBB in terms of writing code and implementing controls is fairly rudimentary, but I believe that CJ is on the right track.
