New search function

[FiF]

Just tried it. Came up with some decent results. Whoever is responsible, thanks and keep up the good work.

This was on mobile beta and Android.

We are pleased with it, and it should be only a minute behind the forums (if not quicker).

It also has some advanced searching in the box that we have not publicised, but you can do AND, OR plus wildcards such as pors* in it too.

Is is possible to only search in a single subforum?

Yes, but only once you have searched for something. On the left (on desktop) or at the bottom of the results (on mobile) you can filter to a single forum, or multiple, that have posts that match your search.

Thanks for the reply. I'm searching for 'builder' and I get results spread across 23 sub groups - it appears as though if I want to limit the results to just one, then I have to go to all the others (22 of them) and deselect them. Is there another way? I'm doing this via iPad

Unfortunately this is much easier on a desktop to do as you can just select the forum you want. It is not as optimal on touch devices, so at the moment deselecting the groups is the method.

We are looking at better ways though in future releases.
