Does Site Search Work at All?

Posted by John Ellenberger on July 26, 2013 at 6:49am

So I have been trying to follow good etiquette and search for answers before I post but every time I use the local search I get nothing.  After getting nothing for "moongel" (I saw it in new post and wanted to check it out),  I tried the string "quad" in both category and discussion searches and it returned 0 messages.  Same result for Chrome and IE.  It appears to be completely broken.  Am I missing something?

I guess I can figure out the site-serach string to maybe work around it but it seems that not having a working site search is going to cause a lot of clutter(?)

    Search is next to useless even if it does work. The best solution is to use http://google.com and type

    site:diydrones.com your search keywords

    And google will only search diydrones.com site

    @John,

    The Forum Discussion search engine appears not to work for some members using IE and Chrome. We are working with NING to try and resolve this issue with the search engine. Does the Blog Post search engine work for you?
