Something about the search system

Postby diamond0099 » Mon Mar 09, 2015 7:05 pm

I seriously think that the omission system should get removed.
For example, I want to find a GFX packs list and it omits "GFX" and "list" because they are too common words - I get only "packs" and I have to browse through 300 pages to find it.
It may prevent spam, but it makes searching just plain out horrible.

That's a feature of phpbb and I'm pretty sure it can't be removed without extensive work on the search system.

Agreed, but yes what 8bit said was true. There's not much that can be done unless it's been changed in the next phpbb version.

Which I'm going to go out on a limb and say it wasn't? But I'm not too sure.

It's actually a search threshold level. I've lowered it before, I think, but I believe it involves reindexing stuff which might take some time.
