I'd like to request a feature, that search results might be sortable by date. An option to show only results from the last X days would do too. Often I want to read the most recent posts about something but I have to browse through a lot of posts I have already read to find the new ones.

Feature request, moving to cvs.

Neat trick found here - but it only works in Drupal 5 & Drupal 6 (line is further down).

You can use the Views module to do things like that. You can filter by search keywords and sort by whatever you want.

I will leave this as a feature request to consider for Drupal 8, however. Too late for Drupal 7.

This is definitely best done in the Views module.
