Searching the Forums HELP
« on: November 07, 2005, 01:29:26 pm »
3  things that really bug me about using the Forum Search
1. If one adds a short word like PUT it returns any word that has this inside like comPUTer.

2. Since max days is required couldn't it have a default in user preferences or something??

3. Since not putting in Max days causes the error couldn't the search form remember what I put in so that I don't have to type it again?

You have to complain at YABB's homepage :-/

Edit: Max day has been omitted for several reasons (hard to explain). Just type in 999 to search all posts - or 30 for the past month...

If Autocomplete is on, you just have to hit the cursor key to pick up your last value.
But yes, a usability annoyance that could be fixed by a YaBB tweak that could be done by Sparx - after all, they have had to configure certain things to start with.
