Are there any known issues surrounding the search facility?
I used it this morning to search a word in a thread that I know has been used in the last couple of days and came up with no results. I eventually found the thread (it was yesterday actually) and when I went back to the search facility and filtered it to find the word within the last two days, no results came up.
In fact, whenever I search, it appears that the earliest results I'm getting are around two months old.

If I use the quick search, and search by "created bu" for the Support board, for example, it doesn't show the majority of threads. Same happens in other boards too, such as Plugins. When I search for threads by name, it some times gives me the majority, but misses a couple off. Also if I use the quick search and search for one word, it doesn't always find it, in threads I know exact - can't remember what code it last was I searched for and it didn't find it. Usually if I use the full search though, it finds everything and doesn't miss any.

Hi britannia, I grabbed some keywords from a couple of recent posts that have been made on the forum and was able to find those posts when using either the quick search in the boards, or using the main search page. Can you provide an example of a search term you're using and not getting results for?

I mainly use the search for thread titles. There are several words in titles I've used in recent days to search. I put the search word into "Where to Search" along with the board it's on and then display titles as threads, and first search result is around two months old.
For instance if type in the words 'Hughes', 'Martinez' or 'Pulis' into "Where to Search", those results should be no more than a couple of days old.

Thanks for checking back on it, britannia. I gave this a test using the parameters you specified and can confirm the issue with the where to search category of the search page. I'll make a note to our system admins to look into this for you today. It's interesting that when using those search terms in the What to search category brings up very recent results however. We'll let you know when this should be sorted

I'm still having problems with this. A search using the exact phrase or where the thread title contains and displaying as thread title returns no results.

My apologies, britannia. We're aware of the problem of search system returning no results, and unfortunately it's a side effect of the continuing maintenance we're performing on it now. Getting search fixed and working is at the absolute top of our priority list, and we hope to have it all sorted very soon. Just last night our sysadmin made very significant progress. At this time, if you were to search for a thread and experience no results, usually refreshing the page with the search terms still in the box will pull up the appropriate results - give this a try instead.

Are we any closer to getting the search problems sorted out?

Hey there britannia, I just popped onto your forum to check it out, and it appears the search function is currently working correctly. Can you confirm on that for me?
