OptimusBain Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Hello everyone, I am struggling with searches on IPS. It seems that there is a three charts limit (which is fine, I read it can be changed in MSQL). The problem I am having is that I'm using special charts like # in the posts names and whenever there is a # the characters behind it are ignored so I can't find post names like #VAL. The post name is Valero Energy #VLO, and most members will use #VLO since it's the symbol for that stock. Other examples are Facebook #FB, Netflix #NFLX... If I type in NFLX, the topic will be found. If I type #NFLX it won't be found. Is there a way to include # in the searches or is it being used as a wildcard for something in IPS search? Should I change all the # with @ because I tried to use @ NFLX and it will work. I've attached an animated gif with the issue. Thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Explosion Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 (edited) Does it work without the plugin/application you are using to provide the search results via AJAX? This is the result of me searching for #VLO on this forum (granted, they're likely using ElasticSearch on here - but best to test without a plugin/app affecting the process) Edited November 25, 2020 by Nathan Explosion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is NOT in the content of the post, the problem I am experiencing is in the Post Title. If the post title contains # then whatever is after # won't be searched in the results. I tried it with and without the AJAX auto complete plugin that I've got installed. It's very strange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot @Nathan Explosionit seems that it's working! Not on my side. Do you have Elastic Search installed? I don't have it. Could that be part of the problem?
