Title: Search function screwed?
Post by: SadisticSid on December 10, 2003, 10:18:32 am

Is anyone else having trouble with the search function? I've tried my best to look up the table flags for ballistic primaries in the SCP forum but it throws up nothing useful. Same for the corkscrew flags.

(I've noticed it has a tendency to show results from last year, with very few 2003 results whatever I enter.)

EDIT: can't find any thread containing Phreak's updated electronics tag code either

I've been having trouble too, and I've been meaning to bring this up with the admins.  Searchy no worky. :nod:

Indeed. I thought something seemed wrong last night when I tried to catch up on glow maps in the SCP forum. Barely any useful results.

I think what you have to do is set your forum display to 'The Beginning' instead of 'The last ## days' to make the Search work properly. I've had no trouble searching ever since I did this.

No, we did have a corrupted search phrase table in the DB - perhaps the restore/rebuild didn't work properly.

Nah, I confirmed with Styxx, the search index really did get screwed up something fierce. He's working on it.

Oh, that'd be KT that did that. Literally. You don't wanna know what the inside of the server looks like now. He's like a big unneutered terrier.

More importantly, is there any estimate of when it'll be working again?
