Hello Frank/moderators,

The search functionality doesn't return the topics/threads which have the keyword and the username. Also, not all the messages are returned. I know it is kind of context search, and not that in Oracle. I never get the required messages. Is there anything which I am unaware.

For example, if I want to search for the topic/message where I posted a word "break", so I put the keyword " break" along with my username, but I don't see any result. However, I expect an output based on the search field attributes.

Any thoughts?


Regards,
Lalit

That happens to me, sometimes. I *know* what I'm searching for, but the Search engine doesn't return it.

Try Google instead; it might help.

It looks to me like it doesn't return any results for anything if you try to add filtering by user.

Well, filtering by user works for me. But, just that the search results are not what I was looking for. Not all results are shown, at least not the one I was searching for Sad
