This sounds promising.

The one problem I can see now is searching with "Exact Name" unchecked? It sounds like this is only going to rely on ONE userid. I guess while this new feature of Sphinx is being worked on that we could FORCE "Exact Name" to avoid any issues.

Anyway, I've read through this entire thread by now and this seems like the first real hint of promise since before orban left!

You said a few posts ago that you were willing to help fill in the blanks, so would you be so kind?

Some kind of outline of changes between the old implementation and what you've done for the new 0.9.8 would be really great. I guess the biggest blank is how you've changed sphinx.php. I imagine that the rest of the old method is mostly unchanged? (Except for a new sphinxapi.php?)

Haha, sorry.. I don't mean for that to sound demanding, obviously. I'm just ready at any point over the next few days to install 0.9.8 and I really want to help get any issues worked out!

Let me know your thoughts on the "non-Exact Name" search, too. I think even in the meantime that it could just reroute to the old vBulletin search?

Edit: Actually, I just guess the exact name thing would rely on how the query to return the username is formed? I'm sure Sphinx will support searching over multiple userids, right?

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