our top search uses Google search. Our forum specific search uses PHPbb's native search
search.php

I think the major problem in finding stuff on trinituner or even on the D Facebook Bamboo is the fact that users may not use proper formatting.

For the trinituner forums we are currently working on a template for posting items for sale e.g.
In the car classifieds:
Prefix with FS / WTB / FT
Make:
Model:
Year:
Number Plate Series:
Mileage:
Colour:
Price:
etc etc etc

this should make the search work ALOT better.

Not sure how we plan to tackle bad spelling though. Someone posts "winsheen wipah" for sale and the buyer is correctly searching for "windshield" or "windscreen" "wiper"

For the prefix part maybe the easy way out rite now would be to convert / auto correct them to tags so when you click on that particular tab example F.S only F.S items will appear .

Example of the autocorrect for topic titles :

Autocorrect Without tags

For sale. ->F.S
4Sale -> F.S
4 Sale -> F.S

Want to buy -> W.T.B
Wnt2buy -> W.T.B
Wnt to buy -> W.T.B
W2B -> W.T.B ..............



With tags

For sale. -> #F.S
4Sale -> #F.S
4 Sale -> #F.S

Want to buy -> #W.T.B
Wnt2buy -> #W.T.B
Wnt to buy -> #W.T.B
W2B -> #W.T.B ..............
good idea!

What about a drop down menu where the fields/input are preset so there are no errors? I can 't even imagine the amount of variations there are for every word on this forum...

that would be perfect but not as easy to implement as you'd think.

Well the idea is not everyone wants Visit or or knows how to visit external websites , up until yesterday I had to teach some older folks in big companies how to use the internet , only thing they managed to learn on their own was Facebook and the YouTube app.
