wiki search fails - Nuka1195 - 2008-11-23
when i go here http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Main_Page
and do a search "skinning" i'm taken here http://xbmc.org/?s=skinning
which the tab is home, but the page is the about team.

OK so this is really unintuitive, but while in the wiki there is a button labeled "Search" directly under the search box, it will take you here http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Special:Search .
You have to click that then use the wiki only search box on that new page, and then you'll still get crappy results, but skinning did provide relevant results.
I tend to google "site:xbmc.org/[forum,wiki] searchterm" because the site's search fails all around (thanks to jmarshall who suggested google when I complained about the site's search engine in irc)

works good. maybe get rid of the search box?

that is already added to my todolist on the site, once I get some real life out of the way
