Better search capabilities
« on: March 10, 2013, 07:06:15 am »
Can I respectfully suggest these forums upgrade their search capabilities? EG, to offer search this specific forum and to search this specific topic. The advanced search is available but it's not handy, and without a topic search it becomes impossible to find anything in multiple page topics, eg, the JRemote support thread (which has simply gotten large enough to suggest JRemote finds another way to support it iPhone app ... But that's another topic)

Just my CA$0.02  :)

This means changing the forum software - don't hold your breath.

Two options that might be helpful:

   - use the forum's Search > Advanced
   - use Google via: site:yabb.jriver.com google search query here

Example:

   site:yabb.jriver.com google "respectfully suggest"

becomes:

   https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ayabb.jriver.com%20google%20%22respectfully%20suggest%22
