Seeing the comment from the moderator to browse the forum before posting questions, I tried to search for posts related to what I'm having issues with.

I typed in "ftp" in the search box (without quotes) and pressed enter and was then told there were no matches.. Problem is, on the main page, there was my post mentioning FTP in the topic (tried searching with uppercase too).

Is there a minimum character limit?

Hello.
Search function was developed with Matched Against algorithm. For best performance. So, the minimum number of letters in search words must be configured in mysql settings: my.cnf=>ft_min_word_len
