Gez Posted July 28, 2015 The 'ü' in Lüt still looks like a u-with umlaut; if you see something else the problem is on your side. Tell your browser to use western character encoding for Doomworld. 0 Share this post Link to post

Graf Zahl Posted July 28, 2015 What do you expect from 14 year old forum software? The page source doesn't even specify an encoding! What do you think the error comes from...? 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted July 28, 2015 The database uses latin1_swedish_ci like your standard MySQL stuff. I assume vBulletin assumes as much too? 0 Share this post Link to post
Mordeth Posted July 28, 2015 Since the switch normal searches are slower, but searches with wildcards are incredibly slow and often even time out. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted July 28, 2015 Mordeth said:Since the switch normal searches are slower, but searches with wildcards are incredibly slow and often even time out. Not surprising - database searches need a LOT of horsepower, which this server doesn't have. When I have a shell open I can watch the CPU peg for several seconds when I run a search for a single word against the whole database. I'm looking into stuff to see what the best solution is - like maybe, you know, the built-in natural language search capabilities of modern MySQL versions. Failing that we could run a secondary server that handles searching, which is of course a more "proper" solution but seems like overkill. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted July 28, 2015 SELECT * FROM post WHERE MATCH (pagetext) AGAINST ('mordeth'); Showing rows 0 - 29 ( 2,292 total, Query took 0.0066 sec) That's somewhat better... edit clearly this is not reliable: SELECT * FROM post WHERE MATCH (pagetext) AGAINST ('+mordeth +released +"episode 2"' IN boolean MODE) Showing rows 0 - 7 ( 8 total, Query took 0.0147 sec) 0 Share this post Link to post

GreyGhost Posted August 4, 2015 I've just noticed a little oddity with the newpost icon, whereby it remains beside some visited and subsequently updated threads for several days, I suppose waiting for me to re-visit. Is that expected behavior? 0 Share this post Link to post

Jaxxoon R Posted August 13, 2015 So do oddities with the archive frontend count? Cuz I used the term "based off of" in the description of a file I uploaded and something went horribly wrong and now every bit of text after that point is displayed in the "Base:" section. 0 Share this post Link to post
