Forum Search

Is there a certain way to search a forum for ammo by just using the size (i.e. .223, 5.56, etc.)? It seems that the search engine does not recognize the numbers unless they are accompanied by a letter (i.e. AR15, AK47, etc.).

I've noticed the same, let me do some research

Found that it has something to do with the size of the index file saved for searching. It does not index numbers without leading or ending characters.

Yeah, the vBulletin software isn't all that good when it comes to searching, unfortunately.

I'm sure there are mods you can download and implement to help for that.

But from reading it will slow the speed down tremendously. He may be able to add the search terms to the index but he would have to manually add each post that was made in the future.... I doubt he feels like doing all that fun stuff.

K so we will just have to deal with it. I am not complaining to bad. It gives me something to do, during those dead times at work.
