Comment search highlighting.. wrong?

Hi, I just upgraded my version of a new test install.. upgrade seems to work ok, but I had trouble verifying one thing mentioned in the changelog:


- Words from a search query are now hightlighted in comments as well.

This still doesn't seem to work for me. I copied all of the files in the tarball to their correct location, honest. :)

Try the following link: http://www.pawelski.org/search.php?query=chump&type=all&mode=search

The word 'chump' should be highlighted in the comment that comes up according to the changelog entry. Or did I not understand it correctly?

Comment search highlighting.. wrong?

That change description is a bit misleading. If a search word is found in a story and you go to that story from the search results page, then any search words that happen to appear in the comments will be highlighted as well.

If (as in your example) the search word only exists in a comment, then it's not highlighted since the link to the search result does not include the &query=searchword ...

Think of this as an incomplete feature. After all, we didn't promise any new features for this release ;-)

bye, Dirk
