View Full Version : Our forum search engine sucks!

I did a search for something simple, "Beer Pong Tables". I was looking for the old Beer Pong Table thread we had going for a while.

26 pages! It didnt pop up for 26 pages! Yes, I was determined. Now, keep in mind there are actually 2 different engines on this forum alone, why I have no idea. If you use the search bar at the top of the page, under the banner and above the link that says "Advanced Search", THAT is the one that is broken. If you use Advance Search, it'll work the way its supposed to.


So from now on, if you need to search for something on the forum, use the Advanced Search. Using the regular search bar at the top of the forum does not work.

I think it's like that on most forums. Always use the Advanced Search.

It also shows months-old threads as new posts every time I hit "what's new?"

You need to "mark forums as read"
