Can't search within thread for "URP" , search term is too short

[p87]

Try to search any thread for “URP” and you get the following error:

The search could not be completed because the search keywords were too short, too long, or too common.

Hey @p87

We can’t reduce the search term as it’s a mySQL limitation, however if you Wildcard Search that should work.

For example search: URP and that hopefully will do it for you?

just hit up against this same thing - perhaps you could have the search error message contain this useful tip?

or even better … if someone searches for “URP” or any known 3 letter unity acronym , it should automatically add the wildcards for you so the search works…
