A user recently reported to me that he couldn't search on anything less than 4 characters.
I found in the vBulletin documentation & in the forums the minimum search length setting, and I have updated that to 3.
I also read that after updating that value, I need to rebuild my search indexes.
I did that.
When I search on a 3-letter phrase that I know is used frequently, nothing returns in my search.
On a random tangent, I have also read a few things about the SearchIndex & Word tables probably being the largest 2 tables in the database.
I don't have a "SearchIndex" table, and my "Word" table is empty.
Lastly, I can't find a "badwords.php" file anywhere.
I'm at a loss for what to try next.
I'm running 3.6.7 PL 1.
Thanks for any help you can offer,
-Brian
