I've complained about this before, and got nowhere. It's still completely unworkable. When can we light a fire under the developers to get this addressed? Showing FIVE potential matches might work in a system with SIX users, it is not viable in one with over SIXTY THOUSAND.

Seems to have been fixed / improved, scrolls, shows more, and allows deeper / expanding list

Any progress on this, I swear every time I try to use it..
Do Khoros admit it's completely useless as implemented? For example stone32 doesn't work..
If it can only show 5 users, weight them based on their post count or participation. Have some wild card ability to deal with spaces and punctuation marks.

Hi @Tesla DeLorean , I understand, this is really annoying experience. I passed this additional example to the BUG fixing team. I will provide news, once it is fixed. Unfortunately, I cannot provide any timeline yet.

Lina

Tis still brocken..
Still only 5 "matches" and 4 aren't remotely close to the pattern input. Got to think Journalists and Coal Miners could code a better implementation..

Seems like it's looking for the entered string anywhere in a name; eg, all of these contain "ston":
"STOne-32" doesn't show up until I enter "stone":
Surely, names beginning with the entered string should be prioritised?
And why do I get a different result from @Tesla DeLorean ??
A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.

It can be context sensitive. If the person has posted in the specific thread they show up earlier / differently.
It's just so frustrating to use because the pattern match rules are so irrational, if I type stone32 nothing matches, and it's especially difficult if the name has a space or punctuation marks.
It's worse than an Inverse-Scrabble search, which would at least show all users containing the letters entered, in any order. I want key off the surnames, which I can usually half remember the precise spelling if Slavic / Polish
In the older forums it would also search on email addresses, and other non-public data, useful but perhaps problematic in today environment.

Indeed - just the @ brings up the "contributor" list
