Words in Search Query Ignored

Post by Exclusive »

Each time there are similar words when users search in my forum, they get this message

Code: Select all

The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: X_Words
You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.
I really want this to be fixed!
