"Search" feature isn't working

[Rumors]

I haven't been able to get the search feature to work for several weeks. Has it been disabled or just not working for me? Thanks.

It works and then it doesn't work.

I use it a lot in the Nostalgia forum.

It never, ever works. The best thing you can do if you need to make a search is go to Google, type "site:pulsemusic.proboards.com" followed by your query and search it there.

Occasionally it...sort of works, but generally it's very buggy, and not at all reliable. Slizzard's method is definitely your best bet.

I haven't even tried to use it in years. I normally just use the find function on my computer and either go back to the approximate time the thread was last bumped or sort alphabetically/by thread starter.

Thanks for the input. I've successfully used the Search feature for all forums on this board for years. I guess I've just been really lucky. This is the first time that it hasn't worked for me for a prolonged period of time. I'll try the suggestions above.

This is true for me as well. It is so annoying, though, that the search feature is not working.

I never use the search function. I usually find the thread I'm looking for by running a Google search.

^Google doesn't always work.

I usually click "Subject" which puts all the threads in alphabetical order.

But in the Nostalgia forum, it's a pain.

Just went and tried it, and regardless of what I search/the settings I use it only shows results before march 1st.

Just give up on it, it won't work.

[areyoureadytojump]

It's working for me. I used it today.

I also noticed the search last 20 post function doesnt work for me at all, its seems like a good thing to to be able to see the last few posts to see if there is anything interesting or something you would like to respioond too

Use the "new topics" button under the Pulse logo, right next to "home" and "help." It works fine.

^ Thank you! never saw that icon till now.!

It was working well for me when the board first switched over, but now the search function isn't finding all the threads again. I searched for two threads today that didn't come up in the search.
