How to search this forum

Post by Matt » Sun Nov 22, 2020 2:01 am

Since it seems our search function is not working there is an alternative way to search this forum. Go to Google and enter:

site:forum.amanitaresearch.com <your search terms here>

Like so:

site:forum.amanitaresearch.com lemon tek

And your results will be limited to this forum.

What problems are people having searching the forum? I just checked (the top right search function) and it appears to be working fine?

What issues are people having and I’ll look into it.

It won't search on common words, such as "lemon."

Same here, I've found you have to put in a few words to get any search results at all. Single words don't tend to return results.

It's a shame as the forum is excellent, just need the search to be a little better…

@AmanitaN00b @Matt

Thanks, I see what you mean. I've just recreated the database, changed the settings. Check now, a search for lemon gave me around 137 posts.

Tell me if that's fixed it for you.

EDIT: 156 now. I changed the settings again.

My pleasure, glad we got it fixed. Thanks for pointing it out to me.

EDIT: Changed to sticky for visibility and for people to give feedback.
