After your upgrade, you were instructed to rebuild the search index. Did you do this? If you have many posts, we are talking about something that should take several hours long.

I'm having a similar problem when new members register, and then post. Go to their profile and search for their posts or started threads, it comes up with no results.

[Lynne]

you probably have search queuing on - vboptions > search options > queue search updates

[ChopSuey]

Thanks Lynne, it still doesn't work.

I also have some trouble with my search results. :(

ChopSuey, did you mean similar like this?

[ChopSuey]

Hi forum lover, my problem is for both threads & Posts for new members. Try do what Lynne said with Search Queue

Thanks Lynne, it still doesn't work.
So you had it on? Did you then manually run the cron job for it or those old searches to be inserted will just sit there and still not be indexed.

There were three things I remember being told to do and all are under Maintenance > Update Counters - Rebuild thread info, then rebuild Forum info (it said In That Order!) and also Rebuild the Search Indexes.

ok so i must do all those and leave all the settings how they are???

Note: You should not normally need to empty the search index, however if items are showing in search results after they have been permanently deleted then emptying the index and rebuilding the search index will fix this. Search will not work correctly after emptying the index until the index is fully rebuilt. Click Here to empty the search index.

Sorry, it is actually *message* searching options.
I may know alot about this stuff, but not crons running. Idk where it is.
Create a new cron job called Search Queue (or whatever you want to call it), set it to run every 10 minutes and set the filename to be (no quotes) "./includes/cron/queueprocessor.php" and Save. Run.

Can you do just the one for search... um, sure. I'm just telling you what was displayed on my screen after my upgrade. I did all three. I don't know what will happen if you just do the search, but you are the admin and can do whatever you want.

[ChopSuey]

Thanks Lynne i read a post on vb.com about it, from Shawn. Working now :D I should fix it up on the boards i've turn queue search on loll.

Can i leave it on along with the cron job?

[Aclikyano]

thanks alot... this is taking forever to rebuild for search but my members complain about not finding things except for year 2010 results since upgrade! :)

you really are the best!! cant count how many times you have helped me...
