Since it crashes the server everytime someone does a search, I have disabled it. I'll do the forum software upgrade this week or weekend (It handles searching better and uses less memory) so I hope this solves the problem--it should.

It may just be that the search indexes are corrupt. I'll re-index tonight and try some searches..

The Search feature WILL be back by next week...

Great news!
I am glad that has been sorted out.
I do look forward to the upgrade, as the Search feature is nice to have.

It was unable to find most of the older posts anyways, so it's for the better. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thank goodness at last, looks like me and LS were right when we said that the search crashed it!

Is this the reason why I couldn't access IW the whole day yesterday?

the only time i ever used a search feature in a forum was with my DREAMCAST and i'll tell you something, it was a pretty bad experience, slowly browsing through 40 pages of nothing to do with anything i'd searched for... I bet IW must be terrific, but frankly, i'm afraid to touch forum searches... honestly... I don't think they've been perfected like net search engiens... well then again im only saying this after my first impression and no further experience....

Thanks, Z! I love the search feature but if it crashes us... we'll wait! And YES, Mouse, we do need our sticky feature! :D

Hehe.. well, Dan, no hurry for me.. I'll be offline and incommunicado from Thursday to Monday. :D Got my honey coming in then! [img]graemlins/lovestory.gif[/img]
