[answered] How to disable indexing?

Post by zdr »

I've searched and searched and I can't find what I need..

basically, I want to FULLY stop my phpbb from indexing (adding on to search_wordlist and search_wordmatch) - yes, I don't want any search capabilities on my site. Thanks in advance!

Ok the answer is quite simple. For anyone wanting to disable indexing of every word from posts, simply find in the includes/functions_post.php the line:

add_search_words($post_id, stripslashes($post_message), stripslashes($post_subject));

and comment it out. That will prevent any word in anyone's post from being indexed and thus keeping your db from hogging all that space.

it should be after:

Code: Select all

 	$sql = ($mode != 'editpost') ? "INSERT INTO " . POSTS_TEXT_TABLE . " (post_id, post_subject, bbcode_uid, post_text) VALUES ($post_id, '$post_subject', '$bbcode_uid', '$post_message')" : "UPDATE " . POSTS_TEXT_TABLE . " SET post_text = '$post_message',  bbcode_uid = '$bbcode_uid', post_subject = '$post_subject' WHERE post_id = $post_id";
 	if (!$db->sql_query($sql))
	{
		message_die(GENERAL_ERROR, 'Error in posting', '', __LINE__, __FILE__, $sql);
	}
