Can someone explain to me how to use the search functions on this site....this is driving me crazy. It use to be u just put in a search term in the box and you get your results. The results I get now are never exact....THX:toast:
Max, the best way is to go to advanced search, click on the "search titles only" next to the keyword your looking for; this will only bring up the words or item that your looking for.
For me searching for one of the words in the thread title usually works. If not, I go the back asswards way and go to a posters profile who I know has posted in that thread. Then search their posts.
search is beyond broke and also even if it sort of works seems to only search a tiny protion of this forum database..maybe 10%...u search a popular title term and your back to a handful of threads only most from 2007 threads..this once great tool is worthless..
been broke since way back in june...going on 6 months now...guess you couldn't search to find thread for search when searching what is wrong with the search function...i guess they don't care about us searchers...
Exactly!!! I go to the advanced and select all types, but in a popular term and get stuff that dates back a few years...and I know that I saw a thread with the search term...but it never finds it...
I have noticed that I have 2 sets of subscribed threads page....or whatever
Its the strangest thing...I log into my page and go to the Subscriptions page and see some but not all subscriptions....then later in the day the lost subscriptions reappear when I visit that page again.
