 * I just realized that search is broken in my 2.1 install. I’m receiving this message:
 * “”WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the 
   manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to 
   use near ‘GROUP BY year(post_date), month(post_date), dayofmonth(post_dat]”
 * Can someone steer me in the right direction?
 * Thanks
