Port of vb.3.8 version
Features:
This mod uses full scan for text searches, that can affect SQL-server load at really big boards. Fulltext indexes are not used intentionally, because whose can't produce sharp results and not compatible with innodb. I suppose, that if you really need this mod, you know exactly, what are you doing and what are you going to search. In my practice, ONLY exact matches were useful.
One of tradeoff to reduce SQL-server load make log size shorter (1-2 months instead of 6). When vB 4.0 provides refactored search framework, search method can be rewritten.
If you install this mod on your server, i recommend to clarify forum rules, and add text, that your project doesn't provide the ways of confidential communication only public and non public.
This mod is developped here https://github.com/rcdesign/vb-pm_log . Patches are welcome.
