Just wondering if I properly understand how Search404 is meant to work. As I understand it the keywords in the path is used to query the search module for relevant content. As per the example of the project page;
www.example.com/does/not/exist
would result in the keywords does, not and exist to be searched for. Correct?
I seem to be getting inconsistent results. For example, if I goto;
http://www.iis-aid.com/articles/isapi_rewrite
I don't get any search results, however if I manually enter articles, isapi & rewrite into Drupal search I get loads of hits. Sometimes Search404 works as expected, but I have a lot of instances like above where it does not. Any ideas? Are there any other contrib modules that can interfere with Search404 (I've recently started using views and panels extensively).

Hi brashquido
Basically the search404 parses the URL and takes out the keys from it for example if we give www.example.com/does/not/exist
Then it splits the latter half into "does" "not" and "exist" and invokes the "search" module in drupal.
This search result returned by the drupal core search is then appended to page and displayed to the user.
So if the URL http://www.iis-aid.com/articles/isapi_rewrite is not returning the expected pages, then you should check if the normal drupal search is returning the correct page.
Let me know if this was helpful.
