EZ-Link not in forum

Post by jim_grina »

If I type in EZ-link and select a forum search I get:

Forum Index
Information
No posts were found because the word ez-link is not contained in any post.

Looking in the forum, it appears there are lots of EZ-link conversations

From the web forlks:
Yeah, this is annoying.

phpbb search (like many search implementations) treats punctuation as noise and filters it out. The term "ez-link" gets split into two tokens, "ez" and "link". "ez" is considered too short to index, which is fun.

I am not currently aware of any quick way to force phpbb to treat "ez-link" as a token. Some search results do appear if you search for "ezlink" without the hyphen.

I've had problems with this very same thing, you can actually search for ez*link which would find ezlink ez-link and ez link. The - character in phpbb actually gets interpreted as "Show me posts not containing this" so searching for ez-link will find all posts that contain ez but not link, which is not very useful for finding the ez-link products.

Still getting the same response.
Also, what is the current status of the EZ-link availability? It has been out of stock for a while now.
