I fixed the Simone St. John thread title, and all I did was change "Simone StJohn" to "Simone St. John" So what do you want us to do with single-name titles? We'll fix any problem we can. Really, we will. But seriously, if you know you get results with a simple search and don't get them with advanced, how persistent do you have to be to keep searching in advanced? I can only recommend you use simple searches where advanced doesn't work. It's the only rational and commonsense thing to do |

title search brings up a handful of results, while quick search can lead to a result hard to bare. and if you search for models, f.e. just checking "does she has a thread", you would expect that you will find her thread best way by using advanced/title search. that's his point. and the problem is (not just his problem), that there are several model threads with incomplete or modified titles - threads, you won't find with a title search (which is, to be honest, technically far more simple than the quick search) when you would use a name which was added to the title later than the thread was originally started. imho a solvable problem if a developer would simply review the code, if thread title modifications will affect the search database properly - and if not, that he will add 2 lines of sql update code which would do the necessary action for the db table holding searchword / thread ID relations. Jenny explained that the search engine is crap. Anyhow, what's the problem trying to make crap a bit less crappy?

I am fairly certain the issue occurs if a mod just changes the title by editing the first post only instead of using the edit thread function. Edit : All of the above issues with single names have been fixed for advanced search using edit thread

the double click in forum/thread list feature to modify direct in the list instead of using thread edit tools? that would explain much. and if that's the reason for the different effects for the search engine, it should be known by all mods. thread titles shouldn't be modified this way ever again.

Thank you Jenny & hos, for achieving this fix and for identifying both the underlying cause and the importance of trying to minimise its future inadvertent occurrence with a notice to mods. re. thread title edits. Thank you also to palo5 & aphex1973 for taking my "problem" seriously & listening.
Palo, a very minor thing, I haven't mentioned it above because to me it seems pretty irrelevant to this matter: I use vef's simple search multiple times almost every day, just as I also use advanced search multiple times almost every day. To me they are different tools, designed for use in different circumstances, regardless of the similarity of their names. & yes, I sometimes use one search and then the other almost immediately after, even for the same query. It all depends on what I'm trying to achieve. There are also times when google is the best tool for searching some parts of vef. /shrug/ All good. |
