I tried to search for "besides fish" with and without the quotes using the option of: Search for all terms or use query as entered.

I receive the following results: Search term used: besides fish ignored: fish
:shock:
My results are only based on "besides", that does me no good. I can understand if it excludes fish because it is so common here but I wanted to only find "besides fish", not as two separate words. Is there a way to search "use query as entered" like the option indicates? :?:

It's a well known fact that phpBB's search is less than average, not honouring the AND operator - so it plain just isn't doing what you want it to do.

"besides fish" seems like a stange search query. Are you looking for fish alternatives?

I used "besides+fish".... and "+besides+fish"....

Both returned a result.... nothing found for search.... no indication of an error though...

Could just be that those two words just don't occur in any posts??

I was trying to see what other people were raising "besides fish" :) I understand that the two words may not occur together but it was a try. I know people raise mussels and crayfish, just looking to see if anything else was being raised.

mussels, crayfish including redclaw, marron and yabbies, ducks, tortoises/turtles, think that's it, all I can remember anyhow.
Do a search on those topics, and you will find info.

I had already found and knew about the mussels and crayfish. Thanks for the tip towards duckaponix :thumbup:, and I had forgotten all about the turtle ramp. Gotta go track that down again to see how it went. (can't get email reminders watching a thread unless ya post on it)
