Title: Search glitch - 2nd time is the charm
Post by: Lucas Scott on February 21, 2006, 12:02:44 AM
Rams - something I've noticed when I do a search - sometimes when I search on a term the first time I click Search I get no hits. I enter the exact same search term again and click Search and then I get some hits. For example, I've done a search for "G's Place" and gotten no hits on several occasions. I know the thread exists so I do it again - I type it in the exact same way and the 2nd time is the charm - the G's Place thread shows up in my returns. Any idea what would cause this glitch? Someone not familiar with this bug might do a search and, getting no hits, start a new thread when a thread already exists. Just bringing it to your attention.

I Lucas,

I think there is a little bug on the search:
- When you are inside a board, the search is done inside that same board
- In order to get the best results, you must do the search on the board index, or advanced search.

I believe this is the problem... It will be fixed once I upgrade the board to a new version.

regards !
