Hi,

I'm trying to run some searches in the Forum but am getting no hits. I have searched on the following words/phrases which I KNOW exist in the Forum because I can go to individual posts where theyoccur:

Searched Phrases:
Ben
NT
NT 6 beta
Error



Any idea what's wrong with the search engine?

Thanks,
Ben

No idea. Will send support mail to the provider of our forum software.

Works for me, have you got scripts, or Java disabled in your browser?

No, Java is not disabled.

Here's why I think there's a problem: I've initiated probably 20 or so new threads and always sign my name (Ben) in these posts. When I run a search on Ben I get, maybe, 2 hits, whereas I used to get about 15 hits. So, either the search engine has a problem or, possibly, the search only checks message that are newer than some date and maybe my earlier posts are now too old to be picked up by the search engine.The search engine does not have a way to specify a date range, so maybe this is what's causing the problem.
