I upgraded the search function to allow searches to be constrained to thread titles. Now the question is, should that be the default?

maybe 70% titles. the search function in phpbb isnt the greatest anyway, so it probably doesnt matter.

no, but i think that this, along with making google-style AND searches the default will help a lot.

Kinda both. I wouldn't have replied, since it doesn't help you any, but I didn't want to give the impression that I didn't care enough to answer.

Titles should be the default. Always gotta start your searches to give you the fewest results, and if it comes up empty dig a bit deeper.
Geez, I've been asking for this for like a year. :lol:

I think it should randomly go back and forth between titles and text.

I say deck chairs. I use both. Probably moreso on the text, but both are handy. And still, I am sure I have duplicated threads here and there.

What I'd like to see is a SFW censor that will substitute *** for the last letters of professionally inappropriate languate. That would rock, kind of like when Repo Man is shown on network TV:

"Let's get those metal bombers."

My parents used to replace swear words with things that sounded just as silly as the movie censors.

The problem is, people often make stupid thread titles like Check this out or HEY _______*

And you should probably be able to remember the titles...

I have never searched for text.
