This feature is not offcialy supported at this time, so enabling this is like hacking your forums

You'll need to shut your boards down for security reasons and enter debug mode, or enable debug mode for yourself only.

Once done, go into the vBulletin AdminCP > and select vBulletin Options.

You will see an area called Version Info and Other Untouchables
At the bottom you will see

Fulltext Search

Run the two querys it says to, adjust for table prefixes.

Then click on yes and hit save.

I don't really understand this fulltext searching....does it only have to do with the members ability to search through the forums or does it allow the ADMIN to search for phrases under "Search Templates"?

Thanks!

Bug found - if a user searches for anything with one quotation mark in the query (i.e. 12"), I get an error... but if you use 2 quotation marks, as used with fulltext searching, it works fine...

You need to enable AdminCP Quick Stats in the vBulletin options under AdminCP Prefrecnes.

does that mean, if i don't use the fulltext search, i can change the post table to InnoDB? and have no table locking any more?

IIRC Erwin found that InnoDB was slower than the current and has moved his other tables back, i may be wrong

Just wanted to say thanks for this HowTo-Guide!

Switching to FullText-Searching solved all my problems, like timeouts (when editing or deleting a posting/thread) and table-locking (while searching).

Where is the 'hack' version? I did a search here and didn't spot it.

Does it require mysql 4.0.2+?
