So when is it going to be re enabled.?  Believe it or not, this is a huge ass board that needs search to be re enabled.

I just realized that the search feature has been disabled. May be theymos must be still working on the security issue as it has been just 6 days since the forum is up. We should wait for few more days and check.

SMF's allows the option to use a custom index, which works by taking a hash of every word and building an index of where those words point to what threads/posts. It will take some time to rebuild the index. Indexing provides better performance if anyone is wondering why the forum takes this approach.

Use Google: 'search term' site:bitcointalk.org

And it's done.
