I’m not satified at all with the function of FSM’s “Search Forum” feature.
I have no idea how these thing’s are designed.
I use a regular browser search with the term Finescale Modeler and whatever the subject is that I’m searching for.
It works very quickly.
Good tip, Bill.
I used to get all bent out of shape because the forum search here is so bad. No longer. If I were the forum owner, I don’t think I’d spend the money on an improved search function either.
You post gave me an idea. Though I often use Google to search for stuff I’m researching here at FSM, I have been frustrated from time to time not being able to find some old thread of mine or another.
You just made me think. Three keywords; my username, ‘finescale’ and the subject has pulled up each one so far. Thanks. [Y]
I always use Google and search “cs.finescale” + whatever I’m searching for. Learned that trick over on the model railroader forum. It works. The consensus is that the forum search does not work as a user would assume.
