Searching for words adjacent to an underscore

Not sure if is a feature improvement or a bug report.

There doesn't seem to be a way to search for words adjacent to an underscore.

Example: https://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php?t/Re%3A-Features-or-permissions-required-to-delete-your-own-post-attachments-6070.msg43189#msg43189 contains the term "edit_disable_time".

Searching for edit_disable_time does not return any matches.
Searching for disable does not* return the post referenced above or the replies that follow.
Searching for disable time does not return any matches.

*edit: incorrect word replacement: the > not

Give it a try now, I rebuilt the search index.

In 2.0 I've done several iterations on the best indexing to use (when using custom search index) and I sometimes forget to rebuild the index.  There could also be a bug or two that I need to track down!

Okay so it is working here.
We're currently using 1.1.8 and no joy there.

I'll take a look at 1.1.8 and see if there is a quick fix ... the 2.0 search had some significant changes.
