Search Function

Good Day to all...

I could be wrong, but it appears to me, in my own little world, that the search feature isn't searching the titles/subject lines of the posts - only the body. It seems this way to me, because when I do a search that has the info in the title line, but just a link in the body, it doesn't pull up the thread. I've tried the advanced search and selected to search the subject line (or whatever it states), but it still only seems to pull from the body. Is it just me and my little world or is anyone else experiencing this search problem, and if so, is the site tech already aware or could I "report" it?

Thank you to anyone out there "listening"

Re: Search Function

The function is working just fine for me. Two things: Be sure you are using the search function for the forums (at the top of the forum, directly below the thread progression and your login information), not the one for individual threads, and 2.) Keep it simple, a key word or two at most. Any questions, contact one of the Mods.
Hope that helps.

Re: Search Function

That's the search I use. I've just had trouble... I guess I'll have to do more than two separate key word searches [that's my usual]. For some reason, some of the ones I tested on, didn't pull it if the word was in the title, but not the body. I'll figure out what I'm doing [or not doing] that's causing my issue...

Thank you for the response.
