Thanks, the main site search did a decent job of searching the forums but this is great too. Does it support advanced searching for posts in specific sub-forums or by specific users? [import]uid: 12108 topic_id: 4681 reply_id: 14831[/import]
Here’s some tips for advanced searches:
For exact phrases, use quotes, e.g.: [text]“free beer”[/text]
To exclude words, use a negative sign, e.g.: [text]-soda[/text]
To search within a category on the forums, use the category number, e.g.: [text]category:29[/text]
Here’s a list of the categories and their numbers:
