I reworked the search-function, not sure whether it still will crash SEN. Looks good so far, though.

While you're at it why not link the quick search to the working search function?

I mean it won't be important for any of us veterans because we got used to this quirk, but people new to the site will just assume the site search is broken because first thing they see and try is quick search. And should they later stumble upon the seach hidden in the menu they'll assume it's the same and possible not even try. This isn't even documented anywhere.

My last post was contrived as trolling...but seriously, I've been waiting for this moment. I hated stalking people using the google search function.

Now that it is back online I can see what threads I'm mentioned in

I'be brought the quicksearch function back up, slightly edited, as it now displays at most 20 posts found to reduce the chance of a crash.

I like the idea! Quickly search for the 20 first matches and if that's not enough there's a convenient link to the advanced search. gw! Fire_Kame

EDIT:
Although it did make SEN unresponsive for me for like 2-3 minutes when testing quick search...
But I like the highlighting.

Quicksearch appears to make the site crash.
Disabled the quicksearch regarding the forum-posts.

Add the link to the advanced search to the quick search results page.

First Neo EUDs then this! Next minute someone will be telling me a SCMDraft 3 is in the works.

@Nuderaider: Done.

Why don't you just be cheap about it and take the contents of the search, then throw it as " __________ site:staredit.net" in google. Be ghetto.

I'm not actually sure if you're referencing the way it was done three days ago or if you're trying to troll everyone.

Probably the latter. LoveLess generally trolls nowadays anyways.

Nice job on the search though Dev.

Searched my name as a test and got the SQL server error thingy (after the site took a minute or so to load).

I don't think SEN search is fixed yet. I tried to search for "Kame" and I think I crashed the site, because literally seconds later Demon started to complain about it in skype...so either it is a huge coincidence or else search still crashes.

I've had similar experiences that SEN went unresponsive for me when I was searching.

I searched for something along the lines of "thiswonteverfuckingappearinapost" to see if it was the number of potential results that caused crashes...

The search page stalled for several minutes, but did finish loading (with, predictably, 0 results).
