Bug in forum search with "value"

[Oz81]

Hi, there seems to be a bug in the search function.
Try to search for "value" - nothing appears. What's the problem? I cannot find the bug myself ...

There's a severe bug in vBulletin software but nobody seems to care?

If you look in the file includes/searchwords.php you will see a long list of words that you can't search for, including "value". I really don't know where that list comes from.

Thanks for you help but this doesn't solve the problem as there is no word "value" in that list, please have a look yourself.

So, it's still a bug nobody seems to care about ...
I should've installed another software I'm afraid. The search for something like "value" is very important in our board.

From includes/searchwords.php $badwords definition:

	'using',
	'usually',
	'v',
	'value',
	'various',
	'very',
	'via',

Hmm...

Well, I'm using the German version of this file and it looks like:

	'v',
	'viel',
	'viele',
	'vielen',
	'vielleicht',
	'vllt',
	'v?llig',
	'vom',
	'von',
	'vor',
	'vorallem',
	'vorbei',
	'vorher',
	'vorstellen',

Edit: OK, then I guess the problem is somewhere else. Maybe you should report a problem at vbulletin.com.

You can go to http://www.wettforum.info/sportwetten/search.php and search for "value". No matches, "values" works though.

But there are posts with "value", tons of, e. g.:
http://www.wettforum.info/sportwette...tml#post874487

The search index is up-to-date, too. It just makes no sense ...

Well, I believe that the search is done using mysql features. I think I've figured out where that list comes from: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.4/...stopwords.html

So maybe there some fix in the mysql manual somewhere.

Sorry, I had no idea that there was a bad word like "value" in the English file. If you ask me personally, it doesn't really make sense either.
I can understand the prohibition of "very", of course. But why shouldn't somebody search for value.

Okay, I'll post it there, thanks again for your time.
