Search is Back, Baby!
We just completed a big upgrade for search in Vanilla that uses MySQL’s fulltext capabilities. The results are finally useful, and the search is fast. Try it out on our community forum.
↳ Pssst. Are you a Vanilla 2 early adopter? If so, read this:
1. Back up your database!
2. Make sure to sign in as the admin user (UserID 1).
3. Navigate to: http://yourdomain.com/path/to/garden/utility/structure/vanilla
4. The page shows you what SQL is going to be executed (if any changes are required), and you can run it by clicking the “Click here to make this change” link at the bottom of the screen.
You can update the database for every application (garden, vanilla, conversations, etc) by changing to the appropriate name in the url, like this: http://yourdomain.com/path/to/garden/utility/structure/application_name
Of course, this process will be automated eventually, but for you early adopters this is a quick-fix.
Grats on getting this updated! Hope it goes well. :)
Perfect !
Does it work to update the entire system (get last commits) for my Vanilla 2 BETA ?
Thanks, the result is really great !
You might want to check on vBulletin’s MySQL-Full-Text issues before even thinking about going there.
No, of course, but I tried.
@Romdef – No, nothing that fancy. It just updates your database tables (if necessary).
