Hi,
While I was writing in another thread I tried to search for an article I read some days before. All I had was a file name, pubimage5.jpeg, which was a part of an URL posted. No hits.
So now I found another recent article with an URL posted in this thread
http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18287&highlight=grabs
one article had this URL
http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-4/74415/JVKEZERIPBEXDYIEIYZP-1-1-5.jpg
To prove that your search engine does not search properly I entered
"*EIYZP*" as a unique search term, all furums all post.
I got no hits.
When I enter "grabs" as a search term the thread was found.
Maybe your search engine cannot search posted URLs as text. That feature would be most welcome in discussions as it would be easier to find other article based on names of downloaded files.
Or maybe it is only an unwanted bug.
Or maybe I don't know how to use your search engine.
Can you reproduce my test?
Best regards
