Forum:Sidebar search doesn't search very well?

Apparently the sidebar search doesn't search the full text of articles if it finds an article with the exact title you entered. I and my wiki users find this very confusing and a very bad idea. Does anyone else think so? How do we request they fix this? Apparently feature requests are supposed to go into this forum? So, this post I've made here is all I can do to say what a poor idea that search is? I know there are other search alternatives, but they're harder for users to find, and they're more confusing to use. A simple search sidebar that is everywhere ought to do a decent search by default. --Jason C.K. 17:17, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The easiest solution is to use the Monobook skin instead of the Monaco skin. Registered users may switch skins by using Special:Preferences. The Monobook skin's search bar has a button labeled "Search" that allows you to go straight to Special:Search.
 * Isn't Monaco the default? How do we get the default fixed?  Unregistered users, or newbies, aren't going to know they have to switch skins to get a functioning search.

 * You can also just add Special:Search to MediaWiki:Monaco-toolbox or add Special:Search to MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar.--Richardtalk 20:19, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
