I just uploaded your game search mambot and installed it on my site: www.funtropolis.net.
I've added a lot of games lately and finally needed the search feature. I tested it with "Deal or No Deal". It didn't work. Then I turned tags back on for my site and tagged the game "deal or no deal". I did a search and it still didn't work.
I just came to your site and decided to test to see if it worked here. I put in the keyword "deal" and searched using the search box in the upper right hand corner. It produced 45 results but I didn't see the game listed.
a. Am I blind, deaf and dumb?
b. How do I get this to work?

I have the same problem on my site http://www.ungamunga.org. The search mambot doesn't work. The search module works for the other contents but not for games. please somebody can help me?

i added more (parenthesis) to ensure the logic flow of the sql...

new version 4.2.0 now, works on this site

ensure that its published (duh)

let me know how this works

Thank you! This will be a great help...
Now for a question along the lines of "How does this work?"
I notice a Google box so I'm guessing that Google's spiderbots will need to index the site. Does it index based on the name of the game? Or does it index based on the tag cloud?
If it is based on the tag cloud, is there an easy way to generate the tag clouds without having to go to each game and do the manual data entry?

Thanks again Steve,

google indexes based on:

• meta (done by pua automatically)
• text on page (including chat)
• number of pages found with that pages link
• how many people click on that page in searches

I've been doing some research on how to make this work. I think I may have found a way. I'll let you know if it works.
