When doing a search for "true blood" under the nzb search field

I receive the following url: http://filesharingtalk.com/search.php?searchid=917891

The latest true blood shows aren't showing up correctly. Maybe the cache isn't being deleted after a given amount of time?

I brought this up in another post, but since we have a thread mentioning it, I'll cross-reference:


The search function for NZBs doesn't bring up any results that were posted within the past 2 weeks

I know about the issue, it's not indexing any new collections since the site update a few weeks ago.

Good deal if you know about it. I accidental duped a post recently before I realized the search was all bonked up, and didn't know how to delete it. Other than that, can get by just fine on manual browsing until it's fixed. Sorry about post duping

I jsut submitted a fix to the server tech people, hopefully they can test it out, rebuild the index and get it running tomorrow, assuming my new code fixes the issue.

I have no problem fixing the code for you, just give me an example db/table with the search snippet code and I'll get it handled. Can't stand not being able to search for multiple series at one time.

I would be happy to fix the search feature. I've had to create my own google search page under google labs just to have a way to search for nzbs. Would rather just come to the site, do a quick search and grab the downloads.

If you want to setup your own search go to google.com, find the custom search. Create a search entry and add the below info.

INCLUDE
http://filesharingtalk.com/nzbs/tv/*
http://filesharingtalk.com/nzbs/movies/*

EXCLUDE
http://filesharingtalk.com/nzbs/*page*

Can test it here until a fix comes out.

When is the ETA on this being fixed? It's been weeks.I know, it's being worked on but things like this take time because of the time difference between me and our server tech support people.
We use a special search system (sphinx), because the normal vbulletin search is impossible to use on large boards like this, and that I'm not experienced enough to debug it myself. :(

But I've just sent a new config file to our server tech people and they will hopefully set it up and rebuild the indexes monday.

In the meantime I hope I can be forgiven for multiple "dup" attempts at collection posting

Of course. :)

Well not exactly, I just turned on the standard vbulletin search for now. It won't do post/thread searching older than yesterday, but will do NZB searching to the beginning. It's a good enough middle ground until this is properly fixed.
