Original Post

Whenever I do a search, the results page has “term_1 term_2 term_n (and)” at the top, implying that it’s only finding posts with all of the terms I entered, but the results seem to include posts with any of the terms. I think a proper “and” mode (or even an “advanced” search page where it could be selected) would be very useful (and would actually match the above description line ;-)) if you can spare the time.

Feel free to just put it on the todo list for right now; there’s no hurry πŸ˜€

Thanks!

Oh, you’re right. Thanks! Can’t believe it was unnoticed all there years. Anyway, I had a look at it and the loop creating the SQL statement was simply missing some brackets. Should be fixed now!

You can find advanced search settings on the bottom of the results page. πŸ™‚

A new search module is high on my priority list, btw. I am thinking about using something like http://www.sphider.eu/ on the backend, and an AJAX powered live search box on the frontend side of things.

Hooray for simple, easy to fix errors! πŸ˜€

You’re the man, KR155E! It works exactly how one would expect, now! :thumpup:

Actually, I’ve wondered all along why it didn’t do an “and” search, but I only recently noticed the word “and” at the end of the search title thingy.
