Using this forum - how to limit search results
« on: July 15, 2014, 07:15:52 AM »
Gurus,

I'm sure I'm overlooking something obvious but -  When I do a search like "multisite" on this forum, I get back pages and pages of results, with the actual matches expanded and highlighted but scattered among a whole bunch of topics that don't match.

How do I filter to only show the actual topics that match the search.

Hey Alan,

Yeah it's crazy. I've asked about this before (in one of the other forums, the general one i think).

The solution Bruce pointed me to was to google:

site:nettalkcentral.com <search terms>

Works well, although sorting is a problem. I'd like to be able to sort by last entry etc.

But it works better than the forum search, that's for sure!
Cheers,

Stu Andrews
