Forum search?
Posted by mrmike on Monday, August 13, 2012 10:07 PM

I must be missing something obvious (I'm skilled at that), but I can't find a way to search the forum for previous posts relevant to a topic. In the "old days" a search box would be available in whatever discussion one was in - I'm not finding that feature in the new format. How can I do that?

#1 Use «View Recent Posts» use below «Forums» —or

#2 Use the «Search our Community».

Thanx...the community search doesn't seem to work like the search functon in the previous forum. The specific example being "hasegawa parts". I need to order a replacement canopy, and I remember there was at least one relevant discussion recently. So I type that into community search and instead of a field of excerpts from threads with "hasegawa parts" highlighted like a google search, I get a bunch of thread titles with "Hasegawa" in them. Is this really the way the new search function is supposed to operate? I could, of course, post my question, but it seems so trivial when the topic has been covered several times over.

Thanx again!
