Can't get keyword search to work for the life of me
Having used earlier versions of Low Search multiple times in the past, I can't for the life of me figure out how to perform a simple keyword search anymore. I've read through the documentation, parameters, filters, tags, examples... and Low Search simply doesn't work.
Here's my search form:
{exp:low_search:form result_page="search/results"}
{/exp:low_search:form}
Here's my result page (search/results):
{exp:low_search:results query="{segment_3}" collection="blog" limit="10"}
{title}
{/exp:low_search:results}
I have a channel blog with a single entry in it, the channel fields are marked searchable, I have a collection for the channel with fields weighted at 3, language has been set, indexes have been built... Yet no matter what I search, whether the title of the sole entry or a word from its body, I get a bunch of pages as a result with no relevance to my search and definitely no belonging to my collection. I'm not using any custom statuses, no future nor expired dates, nothing.
So imagine a site with 500 entries. Let's say I have 10 in my blog. I make a collection for blog and try to make a search just for blog, let's say with a keywords that's in a title of a blog post, yet I get all of my pages as results, no relevance, no order. It's almost as if search result is a random dump of all of my content.

I guess it's quickest to take a look myself. Please send SuperAdmin login credentials to hi at gotolow dot com if you can, and I'll see if I can get to the bottom of it.
