ok, I need to bump this topic again, since I was just reminded how bad the search situation is for people trying to come here for help.
I talk with people about UM and tell them to use this site, and often they respond "how to you use that site? I can never find what I am looking for, so I gave up."
This horribly malfunctioning search box has been driving people away since the release of the new site. I would implore you to use some common sense and turn it off or make it into a link that explains how to use google to search the site, syntax like this:
site:ultimaker.com -search string here-
this would be the sensible thing to do since:
1. People who use the site never use that search box, they use google.
2. New people who accidentally try to use it end up leaving since it's a total failure.

Search has been a solved problem for decades. Why is it so hard to implement it properly?
When I type "foo bar baz" I expect to *ONLY* see articles containing all three words, not articles containing any three. The default should always be conjunction, never disjunction.
