Re^4: Editing node titles w.r.t. Perl 6

while having the "tag" in the title (or a well-used keyword tagging) would help, personally I think the single-most useful search aide would be to have the default search bar do a title+body search, not just a title search. As a newcomer to the site earlier this year, one of my frustrations with the ui was the lack of a one-click body search. The search bar so rarely finds what I'm looking for that I've stopped using it.

That's not a bad idea! It would be easy enough to add a checkbox to let the user choose whether to "search bodies also". We could also easily add a user setting to let the user choose a default state for that checkbox. I reckon we are the only monastery ever to have a dungeon stuffed with 16,000 zombies.	[reply]

Unfortunately, searching node bodies is significantly slower and even more significantly more expensive on the back-end. This is why super search intentionally makes it difficult to search bodies via just a link. So I think you could add a checkbox that requests the searching include post bodies. But it should probably be unchecked by default. And the implementation should not break super search's protection against simple links specifying a body search. - tye	[reply]
