The search function

Does it ever work? Everytime i use it, for something i know is on here like buried 2 or 3 pages ago, what i want never ever comes up in results and usually says it doesnt match anything

Aye it works, keywords have got to be more than 4 letters long though I think. It is a bit hit and missy at times regardless like.

It works but is next to useless.

It should be slightly improved now. The last 10 minutes posts may not appear in the search results, but everything before that should be indexed.

Try using quotation marks with the words. Eg: "Craig Gordon"

BTW is anyone else having a technical problem with it today?

connection to localhost:3312 failed (errno=111, msg=Connection refused)

My fault, I restarted the server this morning in desperation even though it looked like a network problem that was causing site access problems.

When I restarted it, I didn't restart the Search Engine. Its sorted now.
