Has anyone else been having problems using the search function? This crap wont search nuttin for me. Let me know. Thanks

 

Freaking noob!











j/k yeah, it's broken.

 

^^Thanks. I was starting to lose it.!^^

 

I haven't had much success with the search function either.

 

having the same problem

 

What's this "search button" you guys are asking about?

 

Inbeforethesearchfunctionworksagain

 

No wonder when I click on the threads started by me it gives me no results. Wonder whats wrong with it

 

I notice that most of that facebook stuff is gone.

 

Still broken...Please fix. Thank you.

 

the org's search button got STDs

RIP org

 

The new (useless) search works, but the old (useful) advanced search doesn't.

And yeah, count me annoyed as well.

 

People use the search function?

Just kidding. We are looking into it, thanks for the heads up.

 

Good to know everyone has this issue. I was banging my head thinking that I lost my membership.

 

the search worked for non-funding members as well over hte last 3 years or so

 

yeah.. i got a result or two out of it 10 minutes ago ago, then tried the exact same search just now and got nothing.

 

I thought I was the only one. but yeah, if I have to contribute money to get it to work, by all means!!!


The "recent posts" function when you try to search for one's most recent posts won't work either, just FYI.

 

Yeah, search is still not working... hopefully they will fix it soon.

 

^Been using the new search box in the meantime. It's not bad, but it's just not as effective as the advanced search.

 

Find all post by "username" under statistics is not working either.

 

Please fix search.

Without advanced search, the Org is becoming useless except for active threads.

 

Yea. This sucks

 

SEARCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

it's being looked at...please be patient.

 

When seraching for something, it returns completely irrelevant results.

 

Any updates?

I didn't realize how often I used the search function....something the newbs should learn..

 

IB team is looking into it.

 

 

can someone explain step by step what they search for and which search they are using (white box, drop down search, advance search, etc)?

IB is unable to replicate the issue. screens would help also.
thanks!
Dan

 

the white search box...search word injectors



the regular search box on the right hand side in each forum, same search word..



same thing happens when searching any members posts...nothing comes up..

 

I use the advanced search. Target it for the 4th gen forum and try very simple words. Like oil, leak and filter and instead of getting every single post like usual I get the same "no matches" as the screen cap in the previous post.

I have used search many times before, it's one of the reasons I have such a low post count on this forum. Now when I need it the most I can't use it. Looks like I'm going to have to spend some money at the mechanic now.

 

"Search this thread" drop down located at the top of each thread.
Click that and enter just about anything pertaining to the thread(even user names) in that white box and the result will be:

"Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."

 

The advanced search is what I have problems with. Put anything in the "Search for" box, usually I target it to 1 forum (4th Gen, sometimes 5th Gen) and I get the "Sorry, no matches" message, no matter what phrase or words I put in the search box. The "Google Search" seems to work ok, but that doesn't target any particular forum which gets very annoying.

 

Go to any member profile. Click on the Statistics tabpage. Click on "find all threads started by [user]", and it will erroneously come up empty.

That's highly doubtful.

 

well from the additional info that you all provided they can see the issue now so they will work the problem. once the fix is in and if there are other issues they will be looked at them one at a time. apologies for the delay.

can you lose the attitude? i would appreciate that, thanks.

 

Whatever, man... we just want search to work again. Thank you for making it happen.

 

if there was something i can do it would've been fixed by now.

 

GL w/ fixing it up Danny

 

I believe that. (no sarcasm)

 

Did you guys did any updates to the site prior to the search not working? It could be a corrupt search cache..fix in mysql database by resyncing the table.
