Search Enhancement

05-14-2006, 12:50 AM#1
Tim.
As many of you are aware the search engine we have currently been using from our vBulletin engine has been.. less than satisfactory. Thanks to some access information given to me from Uluru I have been able to make modifications to the system in order to create increase its accuracy. From now on we use a Boolean-type search engine. For example:
Quote:
Model+Star+Wars
Will return all the threads/posts with all 3 words mentioned (However not nessesarly mentioned together in that order)
Quote:
Model+Paladin-WoW
Will return all threads/posts with both Model and Paladin, but exclude posts/threads wherein WoW is mentioned.

I apologize you all had to wait so long for this change, I hope it will help everyone in the future.
