Searching 3 letter words

[Merman Chatfish]

Why does the search box require words 4 or more characters? Just searching to see if this was an article (search box) but since it only searched on "search" I got more than 500 results. There are some good useful words that are 3 letters, like box, fin, H2O, etc, etc.

It's just part of the forum software. The search function can only do so much. Honestly if you searched any of the 3 letter words you mentioned you'd get hundreds of results since they're used so commonly. Some words if you search the search function will straight up tell you the word is used too commonly to give any kind of decent results. I tend to use google instead of the search bar. Just put in your search inquiry followed by "site:mernetwork.com" . Google has all kinds of useful search operators (https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/2466433?hl=en&rd=1) to help you find things better as well.

The more specific you are the better it'll be. :/
