Search this forum....

Is it just me or does the search function on this forum not work?
No matter what I enter, I receive the same message "The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: update."

Yeah. The word database has gotten too large so it will say that. We need to cull some older posts when we do normal maintenance at the end of the month.

We did some maintenance on the board yesterday and the search function is now working again.

On a related topic: I tried using both Google and DuckDuckGo (e.g.: <search term> site:forum.eyez-on.com) and both came up bupkis on several words and terms I confirmed existed in the forums. Are y'all denying those search engines' indexing the forums?

Nope, we allow full indexing of the forum.

Hmmm... Must've been operator headspace, then Thanks for the follow-up.
