Site Search not functioning

[obiuno]

Dear all

I have created a website for a local newspaper and I am trying to make its search field to work using as input greek words (letters) but in vain.

I tried to figure out what is going on and even to borrow any idea from the recent multilingual profile which is optional during new installations...but also on this one I tried to search english or suomi or deutsch words but neither it, was functioning....

I would much appreciated your kind assistance and support

I finally solved the problem by changing the ~= with %= on the search.php

Now everything works just fine

I have a similar issue here: https://processwire.com/talk/topic/8118-i-cant-get-search-to-search-to-search-to-search/#entry79037

I just tried your solution.

Change this

	$selector = "title|body~=$q, limit=50";

to this

	$selector = "title|body%=$q, limit=50";

My search still won't work.
