Hi guys,

Using 4.07..... Had to restore the db a few months ago as somebody hacked us..

Have rebuilt the search engine (emptied it, then rebuilt) and all seems fine, but then got a PM today saying that 'short' words are not coming up.

I'm running an audi forum, and users are searching for things like:

a4
b6
a5
a8 etc

I've included these in the "Words to be Included Despite Character Limit" and have the "Search Index Minimum Word Length" set to 3.

Is there something I have to change in SQL for this?

Any help appreciated... All other words > 4 chars are working fine...

Many thanks.

I can't seem to find the my.cnf (located in /etc/my.cnf), so have put a support ticket in to the hosting site...

Alternatively, if Google search works, you can try one of the mods that replaces the vb search.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
