(fuzzy) search in questions and answer in together.jolla.com [answered]
Fix the Askbot search functionality and enable search in questions and answers in together.jolla.com, preferably fuzzy search. Was looking for https://together.jolla.com/question/2488/pressing-enter-in-the-search-box but not knowing the heading but knowing that the question was about url encoding didn't help.
Searching for text is pretty much broken fully stop, as the search terms are url encoded (it becomes obvious if your search term includes a space, such as google account. If you then click on the "magnifying glass" search button twice the search term is re-encoded multiple times. Hilarious.

Early days, but the search functionality is in dire need of fixing if there is to be any hope of keeping a lid on duplicates.
Thanks @Milhouse of the status info of Askbot's search.. sounds really bad, and the amount of duplicates, overlapping questions etc are rapidly increasing.. Needs a really quick fix, otherwise the signal/noice ratio is getting very low, indeed.. :P
foss4ever ( 2014-01-01 02:50:07 +0200 )edityes, the search omits important parts - no help when the question text body or comments are not searched, thus duplicate questions cannot be avoided...
