I'm having some trouble with search results on my drupal 5.1 installation. I have several nodes with the title "Lawrence Lessig" involved. Yet, when I try and search for this in the search engine, I get nothing. Ditto for all of the other common nodes in my site - ie I have about 13 nodes with "Girltalk" in the title, but a content search for Girltalk comes up with nothing.

Anyone have any idea why? These are all video nodes, with nothing much in the body text, it is all in the title.

The site is www.opensourcecinema.org

Search is in all the pages (at the bottom - something Im trying to fix).

Any insight in this would be appreciated.

Thank you!
Brett

have you indexed the site ? in administer -> search settings ? as well as run cron.php ? after staging the content to be indexed ?

This may be the result of a site not indexed.
Therefore, to go admin/logs/status and run the cron
If cron works only manually, then run the cron from time to time

Do you regulary run cron.php?

Visit admin >> settings >> search. The indexing state should be above 0%.

If you haven't run cron yet you can do it manually at admin >> logs >> status or with the poormanscron module.
