Is nodebb-plugin-dbsearch working fine?
-
We migrated our forum to nodebb almost 9 years ago and we’re thrilled with how fantastic everything is except for the searches.
Even though I have the plugin enabled, the searches aren’t very good. Often, we know we’ve written a certain message and try to search for it using a word we know should be there, but it doesn’t appear. Then, we often find it directly by going into the threads, and the message is there, with the searched word, but it simply doesn’t appear.
Also, sometimes we get results that don’t contain the searched word, or if there are several words together, it doesn’t search for them together even if you put them in quotes.
Is there a configuration that I might be having trouble with?

Can you provide a search link with the problem? What is the post/topic limit set to in the dbsearch plugin page?

Could it be you need to reindex the search? Sometimes things can get missed.
