Hm... yah, I guess a few things I forgot to mention when making the above post... was kind of in a hurry and then gave the link to the persont hat needed.

The original hack stated that if you are running MySQL 4.1.1 or lower, you should not enable full text search; but I guess other than that, it should work for all servers that meet that requirement.

As to to what extend fulltext search is involved, I honestly cannot answer that question, because frankly, I don't know. Judging from the modifications done in search.php, I think this hack did some what touch on the slightly bugged vbulletin fulltext search proble; but whether or not it fixes it, I don't know as I did not test it out myself.

I personally think that merging the two would be an interesting idea, however, I wouldn't be doing that. This is simply because I cannot say that I am familiar enough with JohnWoo's hack, and I only gotten into touch base with this hack a while ago when I applied it on one of my forums. If anyone is interested, I'm sure they can contact 007pig (original author) and make arrangements on merging the two.

Cheers.
