Is there an oppoutunity to add 3letter words to the allowable search list rather than just a cut off at anything under 3letters.
A few suggestions are E10 E85 and the like. They arent so short and vague that they will kill server power but may assist in a few searches. Cheers

The three letters is a standard vbulletin default - ours is set to four currently but we have quite a long list added already as per below. I have added your two suggestions.

ECU added - T5 wouldn't be covered by T56 (although the reverse would be true)

Tried G6 the other day and it was too short.
Is it possible for that to be added aswell?

Thanks russell, if you want to know...
I've tried a couple of the new additions. They appear to only find new posts. Eg searching G6E only finds this thread. |
