Could you give me some examples of what you were trying to search on? I just did 2 different searches for something with subject only checked and didn't have this issue.

hmmm... it is working now.
before it would return subject and body
Now if you people could figure out how to return only one subject from the whole thread... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

The Search function doesn't work. Here's an example: I wanted to see if anybody commented on the movie "The Bourne Supremacy" so I searched for "Bourne" in subject and body, in the Space Empires IV forum. I get a list of results like this:
Search results for query: Bourne

The problem is, none of these pages that were found contain the word 'bourne'! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/confused.gif

Are you viewing in reversed thread order? I know in the old forum system any search would take you to the wrong page- that ordering screwed up the search results.

I tried putting in +"bourne" instead and that gave me alot of good results......however keep in mind it will also get Posts/threads with part of the word in it, like in this case there was a lot of threads that had "melbourne" in it that came up too. Even when I did it without the + sign I got different results than what you did........still trying to figure that one out.
