Mini-error:

Probably, when there are 4n+1 maps, there is an empty last page when viewing the 4 thumbnails for maps in the user profiles.

Example:

http://opal.lunarbreeze.com/~snark3/index.php?p=viewprofile&uid=3705&c=1
(click "next page" and it's empty)

When u click view all smillies, it doesn't show the smillies under their text code.

fixed

When clicking on map images on their profile pages (to open them in a new window or tab) I get only a blank page with the text: "No images available" written at the top.

Here's a link to it: http://opal.lunarbreeze.com/~snark3/pop.php?win=gallery&map=3087&num=2

Hmmm :/ Not on my firefox3 they're not

With the blue theme, the "recent forum posts" and "recent update" boxes on the front page are displayed underneath each other instead of side to side (Firefox 3).

Unfortunately by default MySQL searches only on words with four or more letters.

This can be changed by setting the variable 'ft_min_word_len', but this is not a dynamic setting that I am able to change. I would have to have access to the MySQL config file, and then restart the web server (and rebuild the database indexes) for the change to take effect... I don't think that's something that is going to happen unfortunately.

Yes, I expected that.

The new search page is much better. The colors are too extreme, though. It's almost hard to read because of the blinding contrast. Maybe darker colours for the underground overlay? Like ### instead of ### and ### instead of ### ...

This is pretty standard tbh.

I had intended to give the search page a bit of love, because as you mention it's pretty nuts'n'bolts right now. Will see what I can do to clean it up.

Edit: starting to improve the formatting, plus a few things under the hood. I don't think the search is too bad really

larchy, that browser/IP spying thingy works flawlessly for me.

Anything such as 'I', 'we', 'are', 'for' get assigned extremely low relevancies and tend not to be matched.

I tried searching for common keywords regarding hammer editing (forum posts). It worked for the most part but,

a) the results list was unreadable due to visible tags and lacking formatting.
b) Short but important terms which are common (BSP, HL2, etc) seem to be cut off from the search because they have too few letters.

I searched for "hello" and "Hello" in forum posts and nothing came up. I'm pretty sure that there are multiple threads out there with the word hello in it

I've looked into this in a lot more detail, and I think what is happening is that because 'hello' is a very common word it is probably a)not in the column index, b)is ignored by MySQL's natural language search.

Anything such as 'I', 'we', 'are', 'for' get assigned extremely low relevancies and tend not to be matched.

Try keywords... the search is boolean btw... I might add some instructions on how to use it.
