When searching, it used to forbid less than 3 letters and I was pleasantly surprised that the "to" keyword was not rejected in the last version (I skipped a few) even though the situations where it would be useful are rare.

My question is about the spaces in the search string: if more than one in a row, the system returns an error. Could we make it so any number of consecutive spaces in the search string gets considered as one space only?

In the latest version, it is set to 1 letter for logged in members and 2 letters for others.

I will place it on the todo list the issue of multiple spaces in searches.
