silly question

[golden hope]

Dear Support team and members,
I bought the Enhanced Search few months ago, but I have not use it yet and I would like to see it and understand it before even try to install this addy.
I am wondering about the official Xenforo forums! are they using the Enhanced Search?
Please can I see a link just to understand its concept?

Yes, ES is used here.

It runs ontop of the http://www.elasticsearch.org/ service.

 

[golden hope]

still I have not got it
it looks like a third party website am I right

You install elasticsearch onto your server. Which then provides the functionality for the addon to work with.

I just seen the link and it looks exactly like any other forum
Are you trying to say the different in the performance or the accuracy of the result for search

It is generally required for forums with in excess of 1 million posts.
There are a few additional options and less restrictions as far as stop words.
The FAQ in my signature has some information about standard MySQL search.

We use it - with a setup of 2 characters minimum word and all.

No other way above 1 (maybe 2?) million posts.
