Searching multiple words in filename

Hi,

i have the problem that i cant search for multiple words in a filename. If the filename is for example "Gustav-Klimt-Der-Kuss.jpg" and i am searching for "Klimt der Kuss" - i get no results. I only get results, when i search for "Kuss" alone.

I tried around with the search options but i had no luck. Can you please tell me what i can do to make it searchable?

I use Version 1.2.5. I tried upgrading it to the newest version but i had so many errors with my template and i couldnt even log in the backend because it refused to accept my password. So i switched back to 1.2.5 :)

Thanks for your help!

    "Gustav-Klimt-Der-Kuss" and "Gustav Klimt Der Kuss" are simply not the same. Give the image a proper title and enable searching on that.

    Sorry, 1.2.5 is really ancient so whatever tipp you may get will be for the current release anayway. Especiially since there has been work on the search function.

    Thanks for your help acrylian.

    I did a test installation with the actual version of zenphoto - and searching in the filenames works fine!

    But when i try to update my original site, i get some errors, like when i search for a term, the first page is empty - but it shows the next / prev links and the pages 2,3 etc. of the search show images.

    On my testinstallation it worked fine.

    Do you know why this erros happen and do you know how to solve this?

    Since 1.2.5 is quite old you probably will have to do step by step updates. Try 1.3.x first (of course do a backup of your site if it is an important live site!). We don't test direct updates from these older version (we can't, lack of resources).

    If you are also using a custom theme you might need to work on that as well. See the theming tutorial and the news section for info about that.
