pwal³ Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 hi, site search ignores filters, see screenshot, makes it difficult to find an older thread by subject only: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're just not using it correctly. Have you tried the "More Search Options" tab? You can search by Author, by category, you can add tags to narrow the seach etc. I get exactly what i'm looking for when doing a search.

pwal³ Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 search offers subject and body, but subject only setting also returns results where the text is in the body, so seems broken to me (and having to dig into the more option makes it a hassle) i suspect it's a web thing they've referenced the wrong selection, suspect it's an easy fix thanks for the input 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant cant just search Audio and expect to instantly get a topic you want. That's what I meant by "So many things wrong." W🤟🏼 Works on the phone too. so Edited January 18, 2022 by Will_Kaydo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will. Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) Not sure if you'd be able to see clearly on PC or Laptop It gives me exactly what im looking for. Will do some screenshots from the Laptop later. Edited January 18, 2022 by Will_Kaydo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pwal³ Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) so i tried again selecting title-only: the result set is incorrect as it includes content hits: and the filter selection is shown as watching in content titles and body: i suspect it's browser-specific, i'm using firefox Edited January 19, 2022 by pwalpwal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pwal³ Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 thanks, but it still shows content hits (or is that just the post-result text highlighting?): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will. Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, pwalpwal said: thanks, but it still shows content hits (or is that just the post-result text highlighting?): It depends in which category the search are done under the "SEARCH IN TAB " If i know what im looking for was posted in the Q&A forum, I choose that, including the approximate Date Created. So if you choose the wrong date frame it won't give you exactly what you're looking for. You just need to mess around with it to figure it out.
