Problem with Forum search?!

MessageAuthor

I just typed 'VCA' in the forum search engine and it returns zero results ('Sorry, no matches')?! Yet, when I google-search the forum...+-1500 results! What's going on??

The minimum length of a search is probably four characters :) (words like "mix" or "vst" don't return anything either, but "vsti" and everything else over three letters does.)

Gerry, that's exactly what I had done when I said: "...I google-search the forum..." I just found that strange that I would get a 'Sorry, no matches' result. Lunar Ladder has probably got it right but why doesn't the search result get a message like 'Sorry, search is 4 characters minimum' for example instead of 'no matches' since that just isn't true...+-1500 results apparently! It's pretty standard on most forums and would avoid a lot posts like mine (I'm not the first, right??) Never really understood why there is in fact a minimum character implemented on some forums? Probably a technical reason I won't understand...
