I just spent another 15 minutes rebuilding the post and it threw it away again. This forum is not working. Please send me an email I can reach you at and I will send the information there. [email protected]

Following are the search tests I’m doing. The search arguments are this way, and the expected result follows.
srchterm will show all (4) articles with test search terms
srchterm1 (or +srchterm1) will show 3 articles containing that search term
srchterm1 srchterm2 will show 4 articles having one or the other or both
-srchterm1 srchterm2 will show 1 article having srchterm2 and not srchterm1
-srchterm1 -srchterm3 will show no results (Even though logic says it should be lots – everything not containing those items. But I can live with it.)
srchterm1 -srchterm2 -srchterm3 will show 1 result

After cloning the production site, I ran those tests before upgrading to 2.1.0. They worked as expected. I upgraded to 2.1.0 and the results changed. Nothing else was updated between the before and after tests. Under 2.1.0 it appears the boolean operators are being stripped off the search argument before the search is done. Multiple terms all become a logical OR regardless of the operators entered.

The production site is at http://callerlabknowledge.org and it is still running 2.0.1. The clone site is at http://f53.fce.myftpupload.com/ and is now running 2.1.0

I do not have Quest Plus installed. I could take a look at the error logs if I knew where to find them. (I’m a complete rookie to all this). On the GoDaddy site the File Manager for my site shows a “logs” folder under the Root directory. I did a search on the work “error” and there was nothing. I’m not sure the error logs would be in there. Can you tell me where they might be?
