OT: searching this forum

Post by costab »

Hi:

More often than not, when I try to search on this forum using the search textbox beside the New topic button, I get:
The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: event log.
Why is it like this? Yes, 'event' and 'log' are common but together they can narrow the search quite a bit. In this day and age, I find the message above really strange.

I wish I knew how to solve it, but I think that's just a stupid limitation of the forum software. I don't know how to fix it... :sorry:

Is this the latest version?

And to answer your post, you can fix it perhaps by using another forums software :wink: Just joking, but joking aside I am surprised that it cannot be configured.

Found this:
set the common word threshold to 0% before recreating the index
in https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... &t=1111965

Let's hope that helps..
