It took me more than a week just to understand partly how search.php.t works when searching messages, had to learn some mysql, but still a pure beginner. Got this idea by googling.

I want to use the sql LIKE method to search in words like:
SELECT * FROM TABLE x WHERE word LIKE '%sub-word%'

The original code is very dense - and clever - doing all the combined and/or searching on the word index in only one query.

So I split up that query in several smaller ones, and this code works as the original, I think, from line 74:


-		q("INSERT IGNORE INTO {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}search_cache (srch_query, query_type, expiry, msg_id, n_match) SELECT '".$qry_lck."', ".$qt.", ".__request_timestamp__.", msg_id, count(*) as word_count FROM {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}search s INNER JOIN {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}".$tbl." i ON i.word_id=s.id WHERE word IN(".$qr.") GROUP BY msg_id ORDER BY word_count DESC LIMIT 500");

+		q("CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE si (idsi int, id int(11), word varchar(50), word_id int(11), msg_id int(11))");
+		foreach($wa as $w) {
+			$keyw = $w; // $keyw = "%".$w."%";
+			q("INSERT INTO si SELECT * FROM {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}search s INNER JOIN {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}".$tbl." i ON i.word_id=s.id WHERE 'word' LIKE ".$keyw);
+			}
+		q("INSERT IGNORE INTO {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}search_cache (srch_query, query_type, expiry, msg_id, n_match) SELECT '".$qry_lck."', ".$qt.", ".__request_timestamp__.", msg_id, count(*) as word_count FROM si GROUP BY msg_id ORDER BY word_count DESC LIMIT 500");
+		q("DROP TABLE si");



But I'm stuck now because I tried dozens of combinations to concatenate 'word' with '%' but allways got erroneous quotes inside the combined word like: '%'word'%', which mysql doesn't accept, should be '%word%'

This is i PHP problem, hope to find that solution also.

Got it to work like this:

(Concatanation in Mysql works, couldn't get php to make the concat right)



-		q("INSERT IGNORE INTO {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}search_cache (srch_query, query_type, expiry, msg_id, n_match) SELECT '".$qry_lck."', ".$qt.", ".__request_timestamp__.", msg_id, count(*) as word_count FROM {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}search s INNER JOIN {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}".$tbl." i ON i.word_id=s.id WHERE word IN(".$qr.") GROUP BY msg_id ORDER BY word_count DESC LIMIT 500");

+		q("CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE si (idsi int, id int(11), word varchar(50), word_id int(11), msg_id int(11))");
+		foreach($wa as $w) {
+			q("INSERT INTO si SELECT * FROM {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}search s INNER JOIN {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}".$tbl." i ON i.word_id=s.id WHERE word LIKE CONCAT(".$w.", '%')");
+			}
+		q("INSERT IGNORE INTO {SQL_TABLE_PREFIX}search_cache (srch_query, query_type, expiry, msg_id, n_match) SELECT '".$qry_lck."', ".$qt.", ".__request_timestamp__.", msg_id, count(*) as word_count FROM si GROUP BY msg_id ORDER BY word_count DESC LIMIT 500");



Next thing could be to make it selectable, wich type of search you want.
