Did you ever release an update to KLogger? I just found it and use it (mostly) for debugging my own code. But it would be nice with rolling files.

Kenny – It seems I’m not the only one interested in seeing wpSearch continue to improve.

I don’t have quite the same problems others are reporting. Since switching to virtual server hosting, many of my issues are gone. I suspect at least some folks are running into resource issues with their shared hosting.

What I am seeing is a bit unusual though and appears to be a bug in the indexing process. It only occurs on a few searches. I use a theme that displays thumbnails next to post excerpts. On some searches a blank thumbnail is generated linking to the search results itself – it includes the very same parameters I just used to arrive at the current search results. Odd.

Rebuilding the index fixes the issue but then I eventually find another search that results in the same behavior.

It’s been several months since you’ve released any attempts at fixing wpsearch’s problems.

I’m still using wpsearch on my site, but I’m getting pretty tired of having to keep rebuilding wpsearch’s search index in order to have it work.

Please give us an update on what your plans are for fixing wpsearch, so we’ll know whether we should just start using a different search plugin.

A few nice-to-haves/requests:

1. Integration with ‘external’ Lucene instances (I’d like to search on local files (indexed by Lucene) and on Wordpress)

2. Search/exclude for posts of specific authors, categories, tags and time-frame

3. Possibility to manipulate results (increase/decrease relevancy by users after executed search)

Just a simple question: does your plugin work also for Wordpress 2.7 and may we use it like a widget? Thanx

You should note in the documentation for wpSearch that it requires the mbstring PHP extension. Additionally exception throwing seems to be broken in the included Zend library (possibly because the include paths are wrong).
