I don't need anything at this point, I'm just posting this as an example in case anyone is attempting to work on the search system, since it's a straightforward test case to look at.

I found a mention of a book titled "No Country for Old Gnomes", authored by Dawson and Hearne, on another site. It was named as the second book in a series. I came here and searched for the authors' last names:

Dawson Hearne

in the search box. Here is the URL that was generated for the search by the search box:

https://forum.mobilism.org/search.php?k ... =titleonly

The search turned up three topics, one for NCfOG, one for the audiobook version of the first book, and one for a new request of another book by the same authors. I assumed that this meant that the original book was not listed here.

However, the topic for NCfOG has a link to a topic for the original, which is still live and working.

Here is the link to book 2 that was turned up by the search function:

https://forum.mobilism.org/viewtopic.php?f=1293&t=3093429&hilit=dawson+hearne

which in its text contains this link to book 1:

https://forum.mobilism.org/viewtopic.php?f=1293&t=2663756

The authors' names are both used in the title for the book 1 topic, but this topic was not found by the search.
