            Description

            By default there is a search delay/limit for members and guests. For example: 30 seconds for guests and 5 seconds for members.

            When a member or guest viewing "active topics", "unanswered posts, etc and the member/guest is refreshing that page (F5 or hard refresh with CTRL+F5) there is no problem. This is because "active topics", "unanswered posts" etc. are not using the search index database table?

            But when a user/guest used the search function (searchbox) they have to wait the given seconds (between searches in ACP) before they can use "active topics", "unanswered posts", etc again.

              I do reproduce this one. user_last_search time is only updated on a keyword / author search (i.e. a search which calls a plugin), but is always checked in search.php.

              Is the proper fix to exclude the "active topics" or "unanswered posts" search types from the check or to always update user_last_search? I think the latter.

              I'm not sure. I could imagine both ways, but I personally would exclude active and unread search form the time check.
