Hi Guys,

I am searching “charts needed” and there is no result found but I see there is a result as you can see in the below.

https://forums.coronalabs.com/topic/2318-graphs-charts-needed/

Why can’t I found this topic?

Yeah the forums search has always been kinda funky.  A better way to search forums is to use google:

site:coronalabs.com charts needed

I too suggest using Google over the site search.  

If you think about it, there is no way any site search (unless it runs on a google box) can compete with the awesome search capability Google has.  i.e. Most site searches are quite rudimentary compared to Google’s algorithms.

@JonPM - Good suggestion.  I generally just type “corona sdk topicword1 topicword2 …”, I’ll give your syntax a try to see how that goes.

Cheers,

Ed

I use your method Ed when looking for something outside of the CL website (i.e. github, etc)
