Official premature whining about new site thread

[barrel break]

Is it just me, or does search not work?
anything i search for comes up dry

[TheTramp]

with the new board or on AO before?

[Bolter]

correct. It doesn't work. I tried to put in the title of this thread and it said no way

[Jack & Coke]

My guess is they probably disabled them until the update is complete.

One of the biggest strains on the system (database) is the search function.

Works fine for me. When you click on search above, hit advanced search. It brings up a search page similiar to the old one.

well, the thing is, 2 days ago i searched for "uprising" as in the cocker frame, and got lots of results, now no results forthcoming...

[Bulldog]

I'm not getting very good results either. The search by poster option seems to work ok tho.

Advanced search isn't working for me. Give it a couple of days, a major changeover can often have lots of little details to work out.

Its working but very limited. It appears its only searching new threads and not searching through the old threads. If you search for something that has been posted today like try "Paintball" it will bring those up. But only today's. But if you try and search on some older threads it does not seem to know where they are yet. So be patient. Not everything is even near done.

I was going to just quote this, to show that the search function works for me, too, but now theres a minimum character limit on all the posts so I have to type something.

search is working grr8 for me

I am sorry for hijacking your thred but I don't want to start a whole new one just for this...I can't find where to change the "custom user text". It used to be under Edit Profile, but I see it nowere. Custom user text is the words under our name, I just realized mine has a typo, lol.

[cphilip]

It does work. Its just not searching old posts is whats going on. Same thing with Images. None of the older stuff is linking right at this moment. Again all will be brought on back online over the next day or so.

[barrel break]
