Search doesn't work!?

Post by eyezberg » Mon Nov 28, 2005 10:52 pm

I tried searching for
1; "joomlaboard discuss bot"
2; "discuss bot"
3; "joomlaboard"
and result was always 0, nothing, nada..? Is that normal?

(ot: anyone knows where that bot is for J! 1.04? )

Where/how did you try searching?

Here on the forums, search is working fine...

I think if you use the search quickbox that is on every forum page it will only search in the section you're currently in.

Have you tried clicking on the search button:

http://forum.joomla.org/index.php?action=search

And then entering your terms?

@ ken: thanks loads, any idea what the differences are? (I'll check the zips for readmes, just in case..)

No, sorry I don't have any idea of how they each work; have not used them.
As I have been working on the CMM list, I have gotten in the habit of downloading things.
More than once I cannot find something again so the files may hold a clue to the source.
