Not working for me. I was trying to search for some examples of keyboard drawers in CPs.

Fixed. The search engine daemon is finicky when the box reboots suddenly. :) I think I have it set to survive these things now.

I hope it's working to your satisfaction. I took some time to make sure the indexing and speed work and that the search terms find something useful. Do you have any suggestions to make it better?

It might be better if it was only looking for titles of threads instead of just all words that we type or words in a thread that have no meaning sometimes.

I tried that a few days ago while looking for this thread and this similar thread. Couldn't find it when looking just for the topic title though.
