(Archived) Cannot Search for PDF or OCR on the forum

[Jivanandanatha 0]

Aloha,

Searching for "PDF" doesn't return any results in the forum, even though I can see plenty by browsing.

"OCR" doesn't work either...

Very strange. I can search for "Tree" and get results.

I've tried this in Firefox and Safari 4 on Mac.

Any ideas?

For whatever reason, you have to have at least four characters in your search term for this forum. I dunno why. Just try searching for pdf* and ocr*.

I think this has to do with the text search index for our forum software. I'll put it on the list for our folks to look into.

Thanks
