Somatophylax[501st] Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 Ok, we've seen jokes about how useless Stormtrooper armor is in the movies. Is it just me or is the Search box in the upper right hand of the forums page kind of useless also? I never find anything with it. Even if I specifically put an obvious keyword that is part of a forum article title I saw... the search won't find the article. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locitus[Admin] Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 We know. The search engine is not reporting any errors in the logs but still doesn't find anything. We're at a loss with it. But try using google "site:whitearmor.net keyword" Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteampunkSith Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Oh, THAT'S HOW to do it! I have been wondering why I can't find diddly squat when searching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Yeah. Our search sucks. I'm sorry. When we move to the new server we may be able to use the default search engine that sometimes hoses things. -Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87ninefiveone Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 The onsite search seems to work better when a date range is plugged in, but as mentioned it's often easier to just use google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dday[501st] Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 I notice that it comes and goes. Sometimes I will click my name and "My content" sometimes it comes back as no content found, and sometimes it brings all my content up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87ninefiveone Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 One more thing, if you're looking for threads by a given user then tapatalk is quite good. Click on the user to see their profile and you get a list of all threads they've started and replied to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
