I've just insalled Serendipity 1.1.2 , under the enviroment of php5 mysql 5.2

DB characterset utf8

when I do a quick search , it always shows "No Entries Found for Query ..."

it dosen't work.

what's the reason?

thanks!

Hi!

The fulltextsearch only starts to work after you have a couple of entries which have real content and not something like "test test tet". It's a quirk of the mysql fulltext search, since it won't work if it returns more than 70% or so of all your entries. So if you'd have 2 entries and both of them would match your search, 100% of your database would be returned and mysql thinks, that can't be right :)

Best regards,
Garvin

hi garvinhicking

you are right!
I did nothing but posted more articles, and now the quicksearch works.

thank you for tell me the theory!
