@Tomas, @Chess: Thanks guys!

@GavinLaking: A fair point :) In all likelihood the feature will be added in a future release. Thanks for your contributions!

Superb! You’ve converted me from a staunch gotapi.com user to this site. Kudos!

Excellent work- vastly improved. Any chance of a link on “Top contributors of last 30 days” to view more contributors. (I was in the top 5, and I need to work out how much I need to contribute to push myself back into the top 5!)

Thanks!

Thanks OTTO, I thought it would probably be hidden away somewhere :)

Props to the Nodeta team on the new version. I just installed the Firefox search.

@Jonno: Actually yes, we support that kind of functionality. It’s kind of hidden, but URLs like http://rails-doc.org/rails/v1.0.0/search?query=word should work.

Hi,

I just found the site and it looks great. I think I will be switching over from noobkit.

Just one questions. In the GET search url:

http://rails-doc.org/rails/search/quick?query={searchTerms}

Can a parameter be passed to just query a specific rails version?

for example:

http://rails-doc.org/rails/search/quick?query={searchTerms}&version=2.0.2

Using the keyword search in FF this would make like easier. For example I could bind the keyword r202 to just search version=2.0.2

@Rob: Thank you for your bug report! Luckily we noticed the same error before we got the release party started, so it’s now fixed. ;)

Congratulations on the new release! I’ve been making good use of the site over the last few weeks and with the addition of version specific docs it really is the best…

One small problem though: the Firefox search extension keeps giving 500 errors for some searches (e.g. ‘save’, ‘update’) but works for others (e.g. ‘update_attributes’) – no doubt you’ll fix it once you’ve sobered up from the new release celebrations :P
