Watch didn't work

Postby Biship » Sun Dec 31, 2017 12:47 pm

I have a bunch of watch's and for some reason this one isn't working:

Code: Select all
[UFC]
Active=1
ColumnDir=0
ColumnSort=3
DisableAutoRAR=0
EnableAutoMode=1
Flags=2751463424
LastAccess=1514639984
Parent=Watch_Topics
SearchString=ufc 218|219|220|221|222|223|224|225|226|227|228|229
ShowFilenames=0
ShowNew=0
WatchMaxSize=20000000000
WatchMinSize=400000000

(source: internet)

If I double click the watch it opens a window showing matches going back to 12/27/17 - none of which downloaded.
It also finds the same posts if I search normally with: ufc 218|219|220|221|222|223|224|225|226|227|228|229

I have set:
Code: Select all
[SEARCH]
Left=10000
SearchInterval=1800


What mistake have I made?
EDIT: Using build 5005

I'm a bit puzzled too. I need to run some tests.

Same thing for this watch: formula1|formulaone|"formula 1"|"formula one"|"formula.1"|"formula.one"

If I manually search it, nothing returns.

I get results if I drop the last OR: formula1|formulaone|"formula 1"|"formula one"|"formula.1"
Is this a limitation on your search engine?

The search engine strips quotes, it does not process them.

Your first examples work for me though in a regular search. When you use in a watch list, it only goes back 2 days because it is designed to return only very recent posts. In performing this search, there were 4 results within the last 2 days so you should be getting something. I'd check to make sure you don't have any filters applied to your watch list search that might be filtering out results.
