Description

With the search in the old TER, the extensions with short names, for example YAG was found when searched for.
Now it seems that the shortest word is 4 characters.

If this limitation is due to the mysql fulltext search word length, i suggest to set ft_min_word_len = 3.

Same for "dam". No hits anymore. Before the relaunch (and here: http://www.pascalcollins.de/mein-blog/typo3/extensions/extension-repository-browser/) it worked fine.

Why closed? Searching for 3char strings doesn't work, yet.

Like suggested in the description we should configure MySQL with ft_min_word_len = 3.
I don't know wether this is a performance issue or not.

I think the performance is the smaller fail than not finding extensions with only 3 chars.
If the performance lacks with setting this option we have to work on the performance on other places.

It seems that Ingo is working on a Solr based TER search with additional filters that should be deployed soon. Since the website Solr search works with 3 character extensions I think we won't have this problem anymore...
