for example, if i search "This thread": EADD Film Recommendations v6 - Nominated five times

for either the text "alasdair" or by member "alasdairm" i get no results.

both searches should return two results:


alasdair
 
You are spelling "alasdair" and "alasdairm" incorrectly. :|

I'll have to check if there is something turned off for indexing searches within a thread.
 
Have you ever known of
search that actually works though, lol.

sorry i just had to.
but it's true.

right. lool .
be the change.
o.s.
 
Fwiw, we took the site offline a bit here and there in the week following the start of this thread. We used that time to rebuild ALL caches and hopefully clean some stuff up. I'll be honest, I still am not getting the hits I know are out there. And, it's generally accepted that the base XF search function sucks. We are exploring alternatives we can add-on to try and alleviate this issue. Sorry for the lack of closure and the delay in providing a sympathetic shrug while we keep working on it.
