[Mod portal]Not working/unintuitive search

Since the mod portal was updated this morning, searching for an incomplete word no longer finds anything, as if there was a space inserted after the word when matching for it. This means that searching for example for "ange" instead of "angel" returns no mod, while the old portal returned all mods that somehow had "ange" in their description, title, or author name, including mods made by arch66angel.

Unfortunate side effect of migrating from Postgres to Mongo, as mongo lacks partial fulltext search. Not sure how I'll fix this, but I'll probably do something simpler, better, but slower for now and reimplement later.

here's another bug.
Pressing the search button does nothing. you have to press enter after typing in what you want to search for.

This is on IE11 if that matters.

The search should be better now. And the button should work in IE.

Did you change something in how search works?
Searching for rso doesn't find rso mod at all.
