Blank page when searching..

[John Diver]

Hey,

I just went to the direct search page (search.php) which I always used, but it was removed - Is there a direct link that can be used to the search page so I can change my bookmark please?

Also, when I did search, the result was a blank page (It had the forum grey background but nothing else and no error etc.)

The link is http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/searc...ify%5Bhash%5D=

I tried it a few times with the same result

Thanks Trevor, if that the easiest way to do it?

I do the same on most forums when I want to go straight to search, can it not be done as simple as /search.php?

Not in VB 5.0.0.

Interesting. I'm trying to find here an error about "forum.php not working": the result of search and advanced search is blank page. Is it just me?

[John Diver]

Not just you

I was just doing another search...

Another error...

Search Results: results in seconds.

unexpected_error

I have said this before, should this be a stable release?
I wouldn't want it on my site as it is, I am still using vb3.

I was searching for signature by the way, just wanted to know why signatures aren't shown anymore.

The problem is a bug with searches means all results return on one page, so if there are a thousand results it will overload the script and produce a white page. The trick is to make the search more specific until you have a reasonable amount of results to fit on one page, (Until the bug is fixed)

How can anyone release this software without search facility, it's beyond me.
