I am having a difficult time getting my search to work with hyphens. I have followed the tutorial below and have restarted the mysql server. I was able to create the example below but still cannot get the search to work. I am not getting any errors and have even tried optimize the db to see if that would help. I am using MYSQL 5.6.12 http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/fulltext-fine-tuning.html
