Is it possible to make a search index only with titles ?

This should strictly not contain posts content..

Let me know about the possibility for this please. Might be helpful for forums with lot of content but little low on hardware resources :)

there are hacks to search titles only, that's easy enough. i'm sure it's possible to re-index only thread titles... that could proove useful i guess too.

Or only index thread titles and completely omit the threads/posts contents.
thats my main question.. this might be very helpful.
I dont think its a big task out there but obviously requires modifying the stock code..

Lets wait till a developer checks this thread and marks there comments on this.

it might be a good idea....when you see how big is your index in the database....

a 100 MB of posts and threads...have nearly 100 MB space in your database....making only 2 tables worth 200 MB big

if the index includes only titles ..you will get 100 MB less space

my posts table is more then 4 GB in size, this takes a lot of time for rebuilding similar threads @ run time, if there is a possible solution please guide.
