Why does the search field not return any results?

I noticed on my forum if you search for anything it always says no results. Then I noticed even on this forum the search does not work.

  • I have this problem too, on both my installation of VF and here on this site.

    The search returns no results, even when I can see a thread with the searched word in the title/text right there on the front page.
    Is there a solution or workaround?
  • I confirm that neither in vanilla 2.0.18.b2, nor on vanillaforums.org forum search does not return any results.
    Please cure!
  • I've just searched for "functions", and I've got results:
    http://vanillaforums.org/search?Search=functions

    It uses mysql full text search to provide it's search, if there are too few comments (to search in) or too many answers (of the search), those are discarded.
  • You're right, the search issue is gone for now from vanillaforums.org, but this does not change the fact that searching and downloading addons or core had not been available for a week. Do you know if it was as issue with the server hosting company?

    A migration was done and it was reverted. It has been said on another discussion (the one about the addon issue).
