Advanced Search Fails On Simple Criteria

[daamon]

Hi Baldrick,

When I search for:

ac3acm 0.9
or
ac3acm AND 0.9
or
ac3acm v0.9
or
ac3acm AND v0.9
or
all of the above in quotes ("...")

..nothing is returned even though this thread:

www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1379523#1379523

...contains both.

Searching just on ac3acm is OK. Strange... Why?

just download phpbb from www.phpbb.com and read the code....

Short things and words that are out of phase with the moon do not search properly.

In short your version number is likely making it go crazy.

Yep, my phpbb doesn't index words shorter than 3 characters and it also splits words with .

I don't want to mess with the search too much cause it slows done everything....you have to wait for google to spider the site and use it as search....or give me an super optimized search mod for phpbb.

That'll be it then...

Totally understand. Fair enough.

I'd love to help with the super mod for phpbb...
