Or is the TA search function the most useless thing ever?

I'm trying to find an old post and after not finding ANY results, I just typed in "Search for "what" in all open forums" and it found NOTHING!?

it's not working properly ATM

So that's why I couldn't find anything related to my cartridge tracking weight question! Zing!

Teh is dead, use g00gle. (It already worked better than the TA-search a year ago )

Useless searches (such as your example) will obviously come up with nothing since the results will serve little purpose. There are certain words that are ignored and never indexed, like 'what'.

If you want help why not explain what you're trying to find and what results you believe you should be seeing (and aren't)

From experience, those that say the search sucks aren't even using it properly - there was an issue earlier in the week but it was only recently drawn to my attention - if that's where you ran into problems I apologize, but, it can't get fixed if I don't know it's broken. I'll check again - usually if any issues happen it is at backup time (5am) when the search tables are re-done.

Edit: Yup, it messed up, I'll fix it. I blame jp, his is the first post that fails on import.

INSERT INTO post VALUES (5931971,84817,'jp',2595,'',1143967683,0,'Nächtste Monat mal neue Felgen kaufen. Natürlich gold. Das wird di
e 5. Satz, also für jede Gelegenheit die richtige Schuhe ',1,1,0,1,0,0);

lol.
