This has happened several times now with search words, so checking if I am missing anything.

I want to bring up the "Sky TV" thread, so put Sky into the search box and it returns "No suitable matches were found"

I thought it was just me as I get "No suitable matches were found" quite often with searches. Just tried Sky and got the same.

Our version of PHPBB is configured to only search for words 4 or more characters long. So "Sky" and "TV" are too short.
You'll see "road" works perfectly fine but "tax" doesn't produce any results.

There has been a fair bit of Sky TV chat on the "can SE help you through the credit crunch" thread. HTH.
