I always knew that there was something fishy about the search on the WetInRed site. Turns out that the results were (as remarked in the MySQL manual, duh!) NOT sorted in order of relevance, but in numerical order (the order that they were added to the site).

I've just fixed this. Now, the results are sorted by relevance just as you would expect. This does make a lot more sense.

Since having moved the site to DreamHost, you can now also use words that are three letters long in the search text.

I'm looking at the stopwords list though -- all the words that cannot be used in searches as they're considered irrelevant -- and I'm worried. Words like "three" are included, so you can't search for "three women" as "three" will be discarded. I wonder if this affects anyone?

I have no idea who uses the search, if anyone, but it should be a bit more useful now :)
