Gamerr Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 1. Your post is funny! :mrgreen: (really, not in a sarcastic way) 2. It's true, you don't find the specific topic but I don't think it's possible to make an 100% working search feature, although this is indeed quite crappy. 3. I agree that the search butten sucks sometimes, but assuming you already knew there was a topic with natural in it, did you really search something and didn't find it?

Cruiser Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 How about we all just stop complaining and pony up the cash for Tip.It to buy some Google Appliances. Will only cost a few hundred grand to cover the 3 million forum posts and Tip.It web content. Then NOBODY can complain that search is broke. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll only take 15k of those to make it to 300 grand :thumbsup: (I wish it were (or was? :-s ) as simple as "SELECT * FROM phpbb_posts_text WHERE post_subject OR post_text LIKE %".$query."%%" :( ) Last.fm Signature Overlays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
