Is there a limit to the /vg/ search? I can't go back farther then a few months
Anonymous
Quoted By:
You can't go back farther than August 2019 because there's nothing there. /vg/ was not archived here before that point.

why is searching disabled for /g/?

Because there's already an archive with /g/ search.

Could you do what
rbt.asia did and implement search operators of sort? Like excluding threads/posts that include a certain word such as that? Or even the ability to sort threads when searching from most replies to least similar to how it is able sorts the oldest from newest? I think it would be a good addition but I am not one to judge how hard it would be to implement.

>>347 No idea what you mean, the search on this archive is exactly the same as RBT's.
>Like excluding threads/posts that include a certain word such as that? Just add - before a word to do that. Same as rbt.
>oldest from newest Again, same as rbt, use the "Oldest Posts First" option.
>sort threads when searching from most replies to least similar This is currently not possible on any archive.

A thread from an hour ago was deleted and won't appear on arch.b4k with it saying it doesn't exist

Quoted By:
What's the thread number? Saying "A thread from an hour ago" is kinda meaningless because hundreds of threads are made every hour.

Hey admin, did you know that archived.moe has /v/ database from 2012? Maybe you can ask him and add it here too? It would be cool because search on moe doesn't work.
Anonymous
Quoted By:
I am aware, those posts from 2012-2015 are from the archive.moe dump which is publicly available. I already have that and several more dumps (including fireden's entire /vg/ database+thumbs) but merging them all into one is a challenge.

I'm but a lowly nigger but would it be feasible to keep what you've got in one domain, and have the other archives on virtualized subdomains with comparatively limited specs?

Howdy, any plans to expand search functionality to include searching for image unix timestamps? I have a timestamp for an image from 2018 and I want to find the post that uses it but it seems like the server only shows the first 3000 results for a specific date, so I can't reach it by just going to the date and time on the timestamp.

>>305 >any plans to expand search functionality to include searching for image unix timestamps Having a timestamp but not the image file itself or the post number doesn't sound like something that happens often, so I don't think it justifies modifying the search system at this point.
That said, if you post the timestamp(s) I can find the posts for you manually.

Why can't we include single letters in search?

Search has been expanded and now covers the entire database (for /v/, this means everything since 2015)

I've noticed sometimes, when searching for threads made recently as in the past 15 hours sometimes they don't show up
i.e. attempting to looking up
http://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/475783621 using the search system either by entering in "what's the /v/erdict" + opening threads or just entering in Control in the subject line and it still doesn't show up
This has happened several dozen times but that's one specific example, like there's a delay in which threads can be searched up, but other times I can immediately search up posts made just a few seconds ago on /v/

>>261 >>251 I never knew something like this existed, it's so damn useful because I have a habit of letting opened images go 404!
Do other archives have something similar too? I tried to imitate the way it's structured here, but without luck.

>>290 On most other archives you can just use the full_image url mentioned here

Not possible, special characters are not indexed.

You really do have it all in the palm of your hand. With fireden basically dead at this point. Do you have any plans to extend the function of the /v/ archive with images and search?

Quoted By:
>>281 >images I do have some plans for this. If they don't work out, at worst I'll have to offload images to
archive.org or something until someone else steps up to store them.
>search This is a bit more complicated though, because it would require a new server to accommodate the RAM requirements. Maybe one day.
Remember that you can still search for older posts on fireden via tor (ydt6jy2ng3s3xg2e.onion)

>>276 Hey, if wanted to make a personal archive for a few boards, how much TB would it have? Mainly for /v/ and /vg/. /v/ because it's to fast and have too much traffic and /vg/ because of images (since none is archiving them).

>>277 To store full images for /v/ alone, you will need about 2.5TB per year. /vg/ is probably not too far from that.

>>260 Hey, how it's going with the options to store /v/ full images?
Anonymous
>>260 Also, I'm having this problem. I use spookyx with the option of delayed load checked so the threads load the thumbnails instead of the full images, but now that I'm trying to save some treads with the full images, they instead show the thumbs, the full images doesn't load (the option delayed load is checked off), this only happens in
arch.b4k.co , the other archives does,t have this problem.

>>264 Thank you for the offer, but we are currently not accepting donations. Consider donating to other archives like desu instead.
>>266 Still can't give a definitive answer.
>>267 This archive does things slightly differently than other archives when it comes to images (such as lazyloading thumbnails) so issues like that are expected, nothing I can do about it.
Also, please don't use extensions that attempt to load every full image in a thread at the same time. This is harmful to archives.

Better idea: full years-back text search function for /v/ and /vg/ (I care more about the text posts than the pics tbh) and nuke /mlp/ entirely (nothing of value would be lost)
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>273 You probably think you're real smart, don't you? But no, that's not how it works.
It has been said before and I'll say it again: /v/ and /vg/ dwarf most other boards to the point where every other board could be removed from this archive and absolutely nothing would change.
And besides, providing search is a problem because it requires very large amounts of RAM, deleting boards that don't even have search enabled does not help.

Why does any word shorter than three characters get omitted from search? Even if you use quotation marks for a phrase containing a word less than three letters, it will act as if the word wasn't there at all.
Anonymous
Quoted By:
Because the minimum word length for search was set to 3. It has been that way since 2015 because it supposedly makes search take up less resources, but I never put much thought into it.
