Serach legacy threads and broken links

website & documentation
#1

the search function of the website does not deliver proper results on some cases.

i searched the term “arcball” and it didnt come up with this thread
https://discourse.vvvv.org/t/755
which does contain a file called arcball.v4p

this thread leads to a file on the legacy userpage of sven
http://legacy.vvvv.org/tiki-index.php?page=UserPagesven
which does not exist anymore
http://vvvv.meso.net/tiki-download_file.php?fileId=692

i probably dont need this stuff anyway but these things can be quite frustrating for a newbie.

add: there are lots of broken/error links in Video Hardware page

Beside what u7angel posted, though this appeared also https://discourse.vvvv.org/t/8173, I’d want to report again there’s the ))) issue.
It now does not work any longer (if it works, it’s because it’s cached)

so we got to use this syntax: ) ))

in fact in the post above first link ain’t working.
https://discourse.vvvv.org/

Anyways, if it’s ok, I’ll fix this kind of broken links in the english-wiki, along my translation trip.

@DiMiX, you can fix the broken links yourself, there is an EDIT button on the page

#5

is this one? -> Arcball navigation

Hi u7angel,
the search only indexes the content of the “body” and “title” fields. That’s the way the apache solr search plugin we use works. I don’t see any settings to change this, sorry about that…

The wiki links problem should be solved now.

@DiMiX: It’s up to the community to fix broken links, you should be able to edit the video hardware page and insert updated links if you have some time to do so.
