This is the discussion/talk-page for: Template:Strfind_short.
The Template:Strfind_short was created by long-term user Wikid77 on 28 December 2010, to find strings using a shorter algorithm, to handle shorter strings. However, on 29 January 2011, it was updated to check the length parameter lenstr=n for search 5x faster, stopping at the length of specific strings, and that also allowed for searching longer strings, since the length would normally be shorter for shorter strings. - Wikid77 23:33, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Is this functioning yet? If so, I'll start updating the automatic taxobox code accordingly. Bob the Wikipedian ( talk • contribs) 00:50, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

The Template:Strfind_short should be updated, from the /sandbox, to no longer ghost-match a hyphen and instead avoid matching internal prefix characters. After the update, the following should match:
Because {strfind_short} has had the bug to ghost-match a hyphen since December 2010, many users probably already know to avoid using hyphens in searches. However, after the update, then {strfind_short} could be used to search for hyphens, as well as the dashes already supported. - Wikid77 ( talk) 20:57, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Can the two category tags ("[[Category:Wikipedia formatting and function templates]]" and "[[Category:Templates with minimal expansion depth]]") be removed from the main template page? Both tags are already included on (i.e., provided by) the "/doc" subpage. Jdaloner ( talk) 22:15, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
... since both now use the same string module (other than having different error codes for not found). — Guarapiranga ☎ 04:24, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
