new search "sucks"

because its extremly uncomfortable! earlier it was enough to do 1 search, now you have to do more (for each year 1 search), and this is a waste of time..

then I think that this new search function will support the opening of topics, which already exist. I think not everyone will take the time to search the topic in all years..

yeah I know, the new search is faster.. but imo not the best compromise between results and speed..

It should be able the possibility of search by user without the need of writing any word on Regular or Phrase search fields.

PS It's anoying when sometimes automatically logouts.

As u can imagine it isnt split between years just to be annoying, theres massive technical reasons for it. I'll point Swamper over here and he can reply to this.

i can't understand how does this new search works at all, sometimes results seem to come randomly regardless of the time period selected.

example: searching for "tiesto". picking last 3 months gives 95 pages of results. picking last year gives 102 pages of results, surely there should be more than 7 extra pages in 9 months? picking last 6 months doesn't give any result

there's something very broken with it.

Agree! Sometimes nothing turns up when searching. Next time when searching pages turns up and next time nothing again

never liked the search function. Can never find info mainly on tracklistings despite knowing there is a thread for it somewhere.

No wonder theres so many reposts, duplicate threads

Nothing is broken - it is limited to returning 5000 results from posts - if there was a thread where tiesto was mentioned in every post and that thread had 5000+ replies then you'd only have that 1 thread returned. Since 'tiesto' is such a popular term you are not going to get very good results for your search over such a broad span of time.

ok, i understand, it makes sense. still, there is one option that isn't working: the search from posts from "6 months ago". it never returns any results, regardless of what i search.

I want the old search back

i like the new search!

Fixing that now - seems that when it dumps out the 6 month database the last few nights that it was messing up. Weird.

There is one more bug and this is the 4 letter limit for a word. When I use the search function most of my searches contain words greater than 4 letters and I still get that annoying yellow message:

** Note: Minimum search word length = 4 letters **

Please fix this and thank in advance.

Can't find my fave topic "Po polsku ktosz?" now...
