Two things:

Firstly, I noticed that replacing a comma with space between search words does not create "Page not found".

Secondly, your config permitted setting is incorrect, you are missing a backslash.

Take a look at the CI2 config.php installation file:

Code:

$config['permitted_uri_chars'] = 'a-z 0-9~%.:_\-';

You're right John, there was a mistake in the permitted URI line. It doesn't fix the problem though.

I also noticed that the search query worked with the coma. Now, if I can get all my users to use comas in their queries...

Still trying to get to the results page though...

Today my Google Search stopped working

For quite some time I have had a problem with third party sites with incorrect links to my Jokes site and Google Webmaster Tools was complaining. Today I fixed that problem and the Google Search stopped working.

// incorrect link now handled gracefully

Hey John,

Have you already fixed the problem? I just tried the search on your site and it seemed to work fine.

What was, or is, the actual problem? Maybe we can help...

This Forum was being updated around the time I posted the following code and it looks as though there was a problem during the update.

During testing to get the error_404.php to work I changed the .htaccess file and Google Search stopped working.

Check to see it the line is in your .htaccess file.

Code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^johns-jokes.com$ [NC]
  RewriteCond $1!^(index\.php|images|css|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico|Sitemap\.xml)
    
  # Removing next line causes Google-Search-Results to fail
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://johns-jokes.com/$1 [L,R=301]

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
