James,

Getting back to you with an answer to your question, straight from Matt (BH development).

The search has changed to always be performed in boolean mode (if supported by MySQL) so you simply have to use the + and - modifiers like +beehive -forum or "beehive forum", etc.

I tried that a while back and it did not work, but now it does.

The one bug left is that it will not give an error on a three letter item, but will not find it.

Each search word must have four or more letters.

+fire +extinguish does find the post with fire extinguisher. Apparently quoted is still lacking. E.G. +"fire extinguish"

Cool. I had tried the old .AND. with no success. This is a good thing. Thanks,

James,

Matt's message came as good news to me as well.

I've tried some quoted searches, which worked very well.
