It's taking me right to threads rather than giving me a bunch of thread options. How am I supposed to find anything? Sad

Ok, I'm having this same issue again,but sporadically this time. If I search "trackspace" it's throwing me to forums, when I searched "search" (to find this forum) I'm getting the list of forum options. Just wanted to let you know, and try to avoid annoying people by having to ask where crap is that I KNOW is here somewhere. LOL Smiling

Soon I may have to be committed due to inability to search LOL

Re: SEARCH feature is STILL broken
February 21, 2008 - 9:57pm

 actually, i think the problem may still exist, just not as bad.. i have to wait for the search index to be rebuilt and until then searching won't be complete..  the search index will have almost 1-million items in it when complete, so it may take a few days for it to rebuild itself..

 Well i was not able to figure out what's gone wrong with the search function, so i'll get back on it thursday night..

In the mean time we'll have to make due with the Google powered "visitors" search on this page.   it's not as good, and does NOT include Premium Forum pages.. but it's (slightly) better than nothing..

 you can use the other search (up top, white letters) until the main search is fixed.. it's not as good  as the main search and does not include the premium forum posts, but it's the best i got until i get things fixed.

On the upside... I guess we know that people *DO* use the search feature... rather than straight up asking questions that have been asked a thousand times.... I love you GuGies...

 seems that it's working normal for some accounts, but dumping right into threads/pages for others..

Looks like i'll be busy tonight.

I just tested it, from the search box on the active threads page.  I used the phrase "private profile comments", and got bumped several posts into the "Will someone help be be a bit nosy" thread.  I are confuzzled  Undecided

Yeah i'm getting the same for that phrase. It was working fine with one-word searches.

THe search box. I type a word in it, and it throws me rightto some thread. It's highly annoying. I confuse myself quite fine, now GUG is helping! Ya know, if I can't find things it just makes me have to ask you guys! Smiling
