VM Search module with terms

[achilleas]

In VM 1 the search worked like this:
Lets' say we have a product named : "My best red product"
If you searched for "best product" you had 1 result the "My best red product"

In VM 2 if you make the same search "best product" you come up with No results. I tried "best + product" I tried "best AND product" but no luck at all. Is there any solution to this?

The search plugin works fine (like VM1)

The search module doesnt

just a friendly pump

nobody?

So there is no easy way to make the VM search module work with AND and OR terms?

what happens with a standard joomla template without override?

I made this module for my site.
http://www.kaizenmediaworks.com/mod-pro-search-header
It adds links to what you want based on words.

I have tried the standard template with the exact same result.

Thanks for the link, however I have quite a lot of products listed already +- 450 with many more to come, with your module I would have to specify a link for each product if I understand what it does correctly?

[PRO]

i dont know what else you can try. I do not have problems like this.

Which php file should I check out, i think it may be missing a "%" in between each term used to search, if I search directly in the DB and use % between each term I can find the product no matter the order it is typed in.

There's something weird going on with searches in the DB, could it be a funky version of MySQL my hosting company is using that could be causing this?
Did you add a similar worded title to your test shop and perform searches such as described by me and it worked properly? I.E. Adding a product called:

Splatterhouse (PS3)(Pwned)

and then trying to search for say:

pwned splatterhouse

as that provides me with zero matches currently.
