XF 1.1 Horrible Search Engine?

[xIsabel38]

I'm trying to find stuff using the search features of this site and I realize, the search is horrid. Like seriously bad.​

​

Let me explain. Say I was looking for BBC type add-ons.​

​

Here at xenforo.com under the Resources go to search and try to search for BBC. You get nothing related to BBC add-ons. Even if you search title only.​

​

Or if I'm looking for a Media type resource and I search for "Media" I get nothing related to media resources.​

​

How about this as an example. We all know xenporta is the most popular download here right? So go to the Resources and try to search for "xen".​

​

You won't see a single xenporta/carta/medio, etc... add-on in the list.​

​

I'm using the search the way I imagine any average user would use any search feature. This is how I search forums, wikis, sites, etc...​

​

Sometimes I find what I'm looking for but with xenForo, it seems like most of the time, I don't. Even if I know it exists.​

​

Maybe, it's just me and it's all in my head.​

We're trying to locate the database table ID that xenForo uses to write the information from users. Such as, when they make a post, a comment, etc... Does anyone know this or how I can find it?

Well a post would be in xf_post. The user record itself is in xf_user.
