Advanced searching broken?


S4

Recommended Posts

I can't seem to do a search and force all words to be part of it. Here's what I'm looking for:

subaruparts and code

 

I've tried:

subaruparts code

subaruparts AND code

+subaruparts +code

"subaruparts code"

 

And all the results I get have one word or the other, but rarely both. What's going on?

The search engine was switched from vBulletin to MySQL's FULLTEXT engine, which is a much lighter load on the server. However after some research I found out that performance is at the cost of losing being able to search on terms smaller than 4 letters, so it's been reverted back.

 

So, no, it wasn't "broken", just the FULLTEXT engine returns results in a much more humanistic (think Google) way.
