edit: I think I got it fixed. The problem is with the process_quote_removal function. Keep in mind I am running 3.8.4pl2 I edited includes/functions_search.php and made the following changes Search for this block of code: Code:
function process_quote_removal($text, $cancelwords)
{
$lowertext = strtolower($text);
foreach ($cancelwords AS $word)
{
$word = str_replace('*', '', strtolower($word));
if (strpos($lowertext, $word) !== false)
{
// we found a highlight word -- keep the quote
return "\n" . str_replace('\"', '"', $text) . "\n";
}
}
return '';
}
Code:
if (strpos($lowertext, $word) !== false) so I changed the function to this: Code:
function process_quote_removal($text, $cancelwords)
{
$lowertext = strtolower($text);
foreach ($cancelwords AS $word)
{
$word = str_replace('*', '', strtolower($word));
if ($word !== '')
{
if (strpos($lowertext, $word) !== false)
{
// we found a highlight word -- keep the quote
return "\n" . str_replace('\"', '"', $text) . "\n";
}
}
}
return '';
}
I have tested the normal search and the search term is still highlighted and I am no longer getting errors during search for more posts by this user.. YMMV.

Unfortunately, no... you can install Sphinx yourself for free, but it is no small task and there are some issues to deal with.
The $2k is likely referring to the "Axivo Searchlight" product, though I hesitate to use the word product as it's been "coming soon" for more than a year. They finally released a closed beta, so I suspect it's still being developed, but that was over three months ago and still no product.

I used the info from this post to make sure it stayed running and this post to setup the crons for delta and nightly. Other than that the only changes I made were from my previous post to fix the "find more posts by this user" issue. It is now up and running on my 3.8.4pl2 forums with: Threads: 799,861, Posts: 11,892,282, Members: 24,815 I set the max amount of of results to 20,000 and it's working great. Searches no longer take my forum to it's knees. The things I haven't done yet are to remove the indexes from post and convert my tables to innodb. Total cost? My time reading through this never ending thread and compiling the data above.

TechGuy - I didn't realize there was two different options for using Sphinx on vBulletin. Though by the sounds of it neither are very easy to setup. One either very pricey, two according to boggseric a lot of files and editing to do - both still have issues and nothing everything working.
Does anyone know of any other solutions to making vBulletin search easier on the server and sill maintain all of vB's features?

I don't know squat about linux or vB but I know computers and some programming (other than PHP). I managed to fumble my way through it. If you can afford the 2k solution, good. If not maybe you'd be better off paying someone to set sphinx up for you.

My point is that even if you can afford the $2k solution, it doesn't matter -- that solution doesn't exist.
Without reading through the entire thread, what's the status of using advanced search fields using the solution you mentioned earlier? (It was a long time ago when we last tried, but I remember we had to drop it because we couldn't sort by most of the fields.)
