Search word length restrictions

[GrayT]

Not a major gripe at all. I understand why you don't include very short words in the search facility - only thing is 'V5' fits in to that category. If I were able to search for say 'remap V5' it would save me having to trawl through loads posts for other models to find ones specific to the V5 engine. I know I can put 'Toledo' but few V5 posters mention Toledo at all.

Just wondered if the search facility can only be set to disregard all words under 4 letters (or whatever it is), or if it could be set to allow a few notable and useful exceptions?

From a dutiful search facility user.
Cheers

To be honest its a drawback of the software, rather than anything we apply to it.

veeeeee5 ??

sorry - only kidding

 

[m0rk]

I can add v5 to it, and then next time I reindex it (13hr job) it can include it

Thanks Zboyd - no worries.

Flapper something tells me that if I try the veeeee5 option it might only come up with one post and link back to you!!!

 

[m0rk]

added v5 to it now

will index it tomorrow or sunday when most quiet

 

[GrayT]

Ah, m0rk - that would be superb (only when you have the time like - don't rush the reindex forward just for me!!)

Something tells me you are already unique what with google coming up with Flappers "best mugs I've ever seen" (or should that be "jugs" or whatever it is, I can never remember!). Anyway enjoy the moment because currently 'v5' links exclusively back to this thread as well!

the old T maybe endangered but i'm doing my best to keep it alive i promise

Brill - I see you got it all reindexed Mark. That's going to make searching so much better for me now. I think I'll stick a post in the Toledo section just to share the good news.

Cheers

m0rk, just a little follow up to this. When you next re-index I wondered if it might be worth adding 'W8' to the searchable list? Just noticed someone had done a search for this but not turned up anything and the W8 light mod is quite a popular mod/topic.

Cheers

OK, I'll try to remember to do it at the weekend

It'll kill the server if I do it in the week

 

[GrayT]

Thanks a lot. I'm sure some people will find it handy.

 

[m0rk]

Done!

Cheers very much. Top man.
