i am coding my first forum and wants to have a search field.
i am wondering what function i should use to search for specific threads in database.
should i use
WHERE title LIKE ‘%keyword%’
OR body LIKE ‘%keyword%’
is that the common search algorithm for thread contents?
With multiple fields to be searched that is pretty standard.
