Search function...
« on: January 09, 2011, 01:00:10 AM »
 Hi,
 
I would like to see the removal of the minimum character requirement in the "keyword" field of the search function. For example, if you want to search for any posts by a specific user, you would usually not want to enter both a keyword and a username, because this would limit the results in a manner you might not want.
 
Another example is that perhaps I would like to search for 14 lb equipment for sale. With a minimum requirement of 3 characters, it forces me to enter something like "14lb" or "14 lb" which will also cripple the search effectiveness because not everyone on the site uses "lb" behind their weight designations.
 
In general, the site looks pretty good. I agree with the other complaints about page margin, it would be better if they were much much smaller.
 
Thanks!
~Aaron

You raise a good point.  I will see what I can do about the search function when you enter a username.  Without the username, however, there must be a minimum amount of characters.
