What is wrong with the search on this forum?

Hello,

What am I doing wrong? I tried searching FTP and PHP and neither gave results but they are used in many postings. Anyone else have this issue or just something I am doing wrong? It does happen to the best of us… :slight_smile:

Looks like its a 3 letter search problem.  I’ve used Wiki’s before that wouldn’t let you search on things 3 letters or shorter.  I’ll ask and see if any one knows if thats a physical limit of our forum software or a setting or something.

The engineers are going to look into it, but in the mean time, if all else fails, use Google.  All of the forum posts are indexed there.

Thanks! I did that and found some posts about it. I need to see if I can do an FTP to upload an image from Android and iPhone. I read that people were having an issue with binary format files at times. I have yet to try it and plan to tonight. I would rather FTP that do an upload if possible.
