Rammjet Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 At times I have needed to do a search for stuff like NTFS SATA and all I get is search results with the exact phrase NTFS SATA, instead of posts that simultaneously contain both NTFS as well as SATA Search using the terms: NTFS and SATA (include the word "and" in the search) Read my posting #21 for better usage of the Search function.

They both do - wildcard would be a cool function to have. It's a shame such a good site is being pulled down by a "hairy (?) goat b*lls" site.

other Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 We're using manual search atm as opposed to Full Text search. Believe me manual search is better. Searching for "lol" in full text mode returns no results, same with searching 10.4.8.

other Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Ok, in the upgrade how search is done on the site has changed! Search is no longer done through MySQL so you can search for 10.4.8 and actually get results. Let us know if its better!
