I think a lot of you knew about this issue, as some of you also reported it to me a few times, but for those of you who don't know our database server had a limit on the min. number of letters a word you search for could contain. Because of this, keywords shorter than 3 characters couldn't be searched for and it had a pretty high priority in our todo list.
I was doing some config tweaks and changes to our database server today and I also updated this along the way! ๐ The result is that from now on, you can use even 1 character keywords in your searches! ๐
There actually are a lot of cases when this could come in handy, as a lot of our users use abbreviations in their keywords like for example x for cross, v for chevron / arrow or z for zigzag.
I'm now also working on some performance tweaks and optimisations for our server, but I mainly wanted to share this with all of you, as I know it's something you might be interested in knowing! ๐
Happy tying everyone! ๐
1-char keywords are now searchable! ๐
