Thumbs up

I'm pretty damn sure it's not me since I don't have any trouble on any other forums, but I can never find jack **** on here. About 95% of the time I get some message that's not correct. How could it not find anything for "t66"?



There's ton's of info. out there I can't find.



Come on now. What the Hell is wrong with the search?

Well not sure the exact issue you are having, but trying to narrow your search down as much as possible will help. IE searching one forum rather then the whole forum.



This link may help thinning the flock as well

OK I am playing with the search feature, seems to be working better now, but I will mess with it some more.

Thanks for giving it some attention.



I still only get this thread when I search for "t66".



Cheers

I have opened a support ticket with invision for this matter, I am stumped, I messed around with it to the point this weekend where it about brought the whole server down doing a search.



I'll keep you posted.

Well after further investigation it appears that some mysql tweaks need to take place, as it sits mysql will not perform searches under 4 characters.
