Right got ya
Bit of a bummer having to subscribe to each thread i post in, but it seems ok to me

 

But u don't have to do anything to subscribe if you follow Webby's instructions, it will automatically subscribe you to any thread you post in

 

Oooooooo so it does - good one

 

It's still faulted though, Webby.

I tried to search for a thread by AndyF using advanced search option and got this;



I personally don't think this is acceptable. I understand, that there will be teething problems, but, surely this shouldn't happen.

FYI Search Username - AndyF
Show Threads Started By.

Hope this is of some use to sort any glitches.

 

Are you searching for Andy Forrest?
If so. you may want to try typing Andy.F into search instead

 

****.

Cheers Brun.

 

Still don't work if you put something in the arrowed bit below.



It may just be me, but it's the same everytime, with both usernames.

 

Just did Andy.F with turbo as the key word and got 749 results. What keyword are you using?

 

St lucia as the keyword.

Quite possibly ballsing it up myself though.

 

Id dont really care whats done to search, as long as I can still use it to find my own recent/current posts.

 

Which u can using subscribed thread feature GC8

 

I dont want to subscribe to threads though. I want to search from time to time to see if people have posted on threads that I have already posted on and then decide which interest me: as opposed to actively subscribing to each individual thread.....

 

If you click on your name you can search more posts by this user, would this not help?

 

ffs man u don't have to do anything, it's automatic, read what Webby posted on page1. When u have it set, u simply goto quick links/subscribed threads, and any thread u've posted in is listed and updated when read! You don't even have to type your nick in like u used to have to do with the old search.

 

I know that I started the thread, but I havent read most of it. I replied to Simon by PM and left it there.

I'll try what youve suggested, although Id sooner that search hadnt been altered, as it is in no way an improvement in my opinion.

How can having the exact same features in the old search BUT without having to type your nick into the search box be worse!! That is an improvement in my book. Why don't you actually try it before passing judgement

As Webby has mentioned the overall search had to be updated, as other normal types of search weren't working. Yes it isn't an improvement overall, but when searching by ID it is actually slightly better when using the subscribed threads feature.

 

Ah, but since the email notifications don't work, it means having to check. The two are sort of interlinked.

And yes, it was me ballsing things up with my search, too much birthday beer I think. Cheers for trying to help though.

 

Eh? you dont need to turn on email notifications, simply set it to no email notification It works perfectly Ive been using it all week with no issues, like I said it's better than the old search.

 

I don't check stuff often, hence the notifications are/were handy.

 

glad its all sorted , got a bit hot here
