UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 7 Development How Do I? Search feature

How do I expand the parameters of the search feature so that it searches most of a thread instead of only the first 210 characters or so.

Version UBB 6.05

Not advised, but:

sub Indexify, lib_postings:

$_[0] = substr($_[0], 0, 210);

Comment that line out.

Note that this will increase search index sizes dramatically and will eventually cause the search on your board to keel over and die (as it tries to load the whole bloody index...)

Thanks, Charles. I can always put it back the right way if it messes up.

I changed the "210" to "5000" and it works great when I reindex, but for some reason, the new topics only get the first 210 characters indexed. I know because when I search for a word in a new topic, it can't be found, but when I reindex, the search produces the results afterwords. So, is there somewhere else I need to modify so that when I post a brand new topic, it is indexed appropriately without having to reindex every time? Thanks!

Bringing to the top.

That SHOULD be the only place where the truncation takes place.
