Actually, maybe 1.0 was doing this too. If there are no results, the message doesn't appear. It appears normally if there are results.
If it hasn't got any results, it shows the standard "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms." error.

Right. But isn't that misleading? It leads the user to believe they searched for three words when really they only searched on one.

I my opinion it's much more annoying not even getting any results because one word was 3 letters and another word was 4

Example in the regular search

hat - no results because of 3 letter word
hat stand - no results because of 3 letter word in phrase
stand - produces results

Example with this mod:

hat stand - produces some results because it bypasses the 3 letter word error

I love this idea, vbulletin should have this built in.

but the first search I did "a family guy" changed my search to "fmily"

when I search for "b family guy" then it searches for "family" like it is suppose to.

I just searched for "I family" and it was changed to "famly" so it seems to do it with other characters also.

Great hack Dismounted...

One little glitch: the automatic version checking from ACP doesn't work. Could you look into it? I just upgraded to 1.2 and if I do the check version it tells me last version is 1.0.

Thanks for your work.

Very nice, just upgraded from VB 3.6.1 to 3.6.8 and I thought my members were going to lynch me.
