Re: Phrase Search in 1.6 does not work
Final resolution.... Sphider 1.6 encodes the full text of a web page prior to storing. This is fine unless the page is ALREADY utf-8 encoded. Encoding to utf-8 text that is already utf-8 produces garbage. For anyone having the same issue with Sphider 1.6, go into sphider.php and comment out line 345...

Re: Phrase Search in 1.6 does not work
Search - with "find all words" Confirmed that there is a problem with punctuation marks making words un-findable. The problem is that punctuation marks (apostrophe excluded) are not indexed as a part of the word, but the search has not stripped those marks. Thus, the search fails. Definite...

Re: Phrase Search in 1.6 does not work
Okay. I found the reason the phrase "a memorable event in the U.S." returns no results, at least in my setup. During indexing, I have the minimum word length set at 3. "U.S." is 4 characters. So the phrase search is including in in the list of words to look for and not the list o...

Re: Phrase Search in 1.6 does not work
I indexed your blog. I did exclude some items, such as "/tag", "/category/", "/author", "/feed", "/page", "/?", and "/wp-json". Anyway, I ended up with 190 pages in the index. I was able to do a search on phrases, although I did f...

Re: Phrase Search in 1.6 does not work
I visited your site and search page. What I found is that: 1) Phrase search DOES work, but... 2) It appears the entire blog is not indexed! When I search for phrases in later blogs, I get no results. Searching for phrases in older posts DO return expected results. When I do an AND search using a phr...

Re: Phrase Search in 1.6 does not work
I'll look into it. Are you using regular or PDO?

Admin display looks "funky" with the Image Indexer installed
If you just installed Sphider 1.6.0 AND the optional Sphider Image Indexer, your admin screen might appear a bit funny in that "Index Images" is too big for the tab size. It depends upon your screen resolution. For example, at 1920x1080, it looks fine, but at 1440x900, it happens. This is ...

Using Sphider with MariaDB in place of MySQL
MariaDB is a fork of MySQL and is gaining popularity. Both the vanilla and PDO versions of Sphider should work seamlessly with MariaDB except as noted. Until MariaDB 10.2, XtraDB was the default engine in place of InnoDB. In 10.2, InnoDB became the default. Sphider installation specifies InnoDB. If ...

Problem with installing 1.5.3 and 1.5.4 versions
It seems the database has not been updating correctly when running update_rollup.php in the 1.5.3 and 1.5.4 versions (including PDO versions). You can check if you are affected by looking at the Settings tab in Sphider. If this indicates 1.5.2 and you know you have upgraded to 1.5.3 or 1.5.4, you ar...
