Been some issues with the search last few months ever since we lost the main search provider.
But.....
I have just finished up some server updates and I am now running my own search server.

Go give it a try and report back any issues.
Try out the improved advanced search as well with several new options.


I still have a few options to add but it currently works.

Tried it a bit and I think it's better for sure.

One thing thats been happening...don't know if it's anything on your side or what...but if I try to search while inside a thread, the search box flashes, and the keyboard on my Android phone flashes up and disappears a few times before finally going away completely. This has been going on a while. I have to search from outside a topic.

Thanks.

Yes, still happening.

It's not a link. Let's say while I'm typing this, I hit the magnifying glass up top to search?
The search field opens and flashes a few times. Then I click the field to type in text...the my keyboard rapidly appears and disappears (about 6 times as far as I can count ) before closing again. Can't search from inside this (or any) topic. Have to back out to the topic index to search.

Yeah still does it, it's been doing that for a long time. I thought it was just how it was set up. I've always had to click the ⚡ then use the search bar other wise the keyboard just pops up for a sec and disappears like @DG Rider mentioned

I take that back, I just scrolled up and refreshed the page right before tapping the search bar and it works fine, I think the page has to be refreshed before using the search bar.



......Yup just tried it on a different thread and worked as well 👍

This has fixed the error I was getting when my search was not found (because of a spelling error). Instead of getting an error It now reports that the search didn't find anything.

That's been a persistent issue for me for past few years when using on mobile devices in Chrome. If I close that tab and reopen the forums, I can do my search. I doubt this has anything to do with the forum or its settings but a glitch in the mobile devices browser.
