Forum Search Problem

[spikey]

So it says on the search page:

Place + in front of a word which must be found and - in front of a word which must not be found.

So I should be able to query -Done or -[Done] to get a list of only outstanding bugs in one of the subgroups.. But when I do I get:

Search found 0 matches: -Done

Searched query: -Done

Am I doing something wrong? If so, what? Or can anyone else confirm?

You can not even find the opposite. If I search for `Done` in all forums and in topic titles only, I get no results. Even if I try `[Done]` it does not find anything.

But this is a know limitation of the phpbb board search. In the background it creates an index with all the possible tokens and words that can be found in a text or title. And for some reason it also skips a lot of these words.

Therefore it is easier to just use Google: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3A ... ish+"[Done]"

That would explain it - thanks!
