Are you searching for exact words that you know are in your stories? As I have mentioned before, Pligg is very picky about searches right now and will only return exact matches. This means that searching for "plig" would not return a result for "pligg", "pligg.com", "plig.com" or any other variation.

[fwebz]

yes yes i search for exact words i even click on tags !!! no results just empty page !

it was work perfect befor moving to new server :(

i know register_globals is off in new server i use

PHP Code:

/*=================================================== 
    force to register_globals = on 
  ===================================================*/ 

  if(!empty($_GET)) extract($_GET); 
  if(!empty($_POST)) extract($_POST); 
  if(!empty($_REQUEST)) extract($_REQUEST); 
  if(!empty($_COOKIE)) extract($_COOKIE); 


it's work for any script need register_globals = on but no luke with pligg so i think it's other prob

[fwebz]

yaaaaaaaaaaay i fixed

in inadex.php i change

PHP Code:

$main_smarty->assign('request_search', $_REQUEST['search']); 


to

PHP Code:

$main_smarty->assign('request_search', $_POST['search']); 


$_POST work under register_globals = off but $_REQUEST not

[AshDigg]

Thats intresting. Sounds like you'll have more problems because I know there is more code that uses $_REQUEST.

[fwebz]

no Ash i do full test all ok just the search

but can i know why you use $_REQUEST not $_POST ??

$_POST more server friendly than $_REQUEST

[AshDigg]

I just did a search through the code and the results are.....

Search complete, found '$_REQUEST' 176 time(s). (30 files.)

We didn't do most of the $_REQUEST's, it was written that way by the original author.

[fwebz]

you are right there is many $_REQUEST in code but it's not affect any thing but serach !

if i have more problems i can use "Replace All" in my editor ;)

thanks Ash,
