Default Search function...

Unlike some people here, I actually use the search function. And in doing so, I often find myself searching by terms that are 3 letters or less; RSI, Cup, TDI, BCC, ABD, key...just to name a few. There are many others, trouble is, none of them work. Obviously I understand that 1 or 2 character search terms are not going to work. However, is there a way to enable the search function to allow 3 character search terms? Other sites work like this just fine.

Right now I'd love to find some people who have installed the ABD Cup front bumper and to see their pictures and such...but I can't do it.

Any help here?

I use Google.

Type in your search term, then type in "site:www.newbeetle.org/forums" without the quotes. You don't get as much flexibility as the built in search, but it's often enough.

The NB.org search has been updated to allow for 3 letter words, however it will take some time for the tables to update...
