Improved search bar

Anonymous
I love DCUM, but the search function is really lacking, IMO. I like websites where I can enter whether I want my search term to appear in the title of the thread or simply just mentioned anywhere. The search function is not very helpful or organized, and I have a hard time finding what I'm looking for.

Yes, this has been a long term complaint. Believe it or not, the search is much improved over what it was originally. But, I understand that it needs a lot more work. it is on our list of of things to do. Sadly, it is a pretty long list.

It seems like the search function is broken, is this the case?

If I run a search in the Off Topic forum and 15 pages of results come back, when I go to click on Page 2, it says there are no more entries. I get the impression you have a long list of tweaks, but is this something who could easily be fixed?

Can you please tell me the search terms you used? I just did several searches in Off Topic and all worked well.
