From the comments at the mysql Fulltext Search page:

Change the ft_min_word_len setting. You can find what the server is using by running:

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'ft%';

Then you'll have to rebuild the indexes on the tables that have FULLTEXT indices, because the server I'm using had several databases I needed a quick way to identify which tables these were.


SELECT DISTINCT TABLE_SCHEMA,
TABLE_NAME
FROM COLUMNS
WERE COLUMN_KEY = 'MUL'

You're not the first user it has stung. I'll look into it. Until then, toggle to 'all-threads-search' manually when you search.]]> SebastienBailard Administration, Announcements, Policy Sun, 11 Apr 2010 07:51:15 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?33,42357,42357#msg-42357 Already Logged! sorry! search engine... wierd https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?33,42357,42357#msg-42357
