Searching this here forum, I see unexpected results.

I searched for the word "error" and saw many results, but the most recent was shown as 2 years ago.

So I tried again using another common word, jamroom:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum?search_string=jamroom

Again, no results less than 2 years old.

These are REALLY common words, so the full text sorting algorithm is going to weight and sort them based on density, so it could just be that the most "error" filled post is from 2 years ago. The search algo thinks that is the best one to show you since you just wanted "error".

Search does work well, I just thought this was a little odd.

Search results seem to be in date order - all the 2 years and then all the 3 years.
