Thread: Search Function

  1. #1

    Exclamation Search Function

    I have tried several attempts to search for a specific thread only to have hundreds of threads listed after clicking search and none of them pertain to what I was looking for.

    I tried to search on a single word and came up with nothing when I know for sure the word was in the thread title.

    What am I doing wrong?

    If I'm doing nothing incorrectly, then our search function needs some ramping up. It's not useful, at least to me.

    Google search works better than DrumChat search. Enter this into Google search:

    I think it's because the search looks at the text of every post in a thread, not just the title. I've run into this problem a couple times too and it's really annoying if I'm trying to find a particular thread.

    Oh man, delete that. No one should ever have to search for me. Plus, I know where I am, most of the time.

    I agree with the Google thing. It works better. You might also try the advanced features of the forum search. I've never tried it but maybe that will give you better results. I think it's a vBulletin. I remember another VB forum having the same issue years back.
