Can you guys... for the love of God, please, seriously, just... please remove the damn search limitation off my account
 It's like... a form of torment. E-Torment via search limitations on a forum board

QUOTE hi, the reason why theres a 4 character limit is because its the default (and most effective) setting for mysql fulltext's search. mysql is the database engine behind this site. lowering this value will increase the storage space requirements dramatically, while not necessarily guaranteeing an increase in effectiveness. i dont know why anyone would search for common three letter words like "are", "and", "you" and "the" as it will return most if not all of the topics ever made here. and you can search part of a keyword (including names) by using the asterisk (*). im going to close this topic but if you have any further questions / suggestions regarding this feel free to pm me. http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...t&p=2497550 Yeah, it may be in there, but it's root admin only. Admins can't do anything about it. I saw Michael in the admincp a long time ago. If he found anything, I'm sure he'll let everyone know. |
