If I search for Garry Evans - nothing. If I search for NFAMM89 - nothing If I search for Irvin Stringfellow - nothing. I have tried searching in "this forum only" and also searching the entire website, biut always comes up with no results. Link to comment

One thing I will suggest is that you search when on the board index. I have actually encountered this problem before at times and the index page is the only way I can get it to work. Link to comment

No, haven't got a clue how to use another browser (wouldn't really want to either for fear of wrecking my computer settings!) Edited May 8, 2018 by Trojanhorse11 Link to comment

I've even tested it through your account and it is fine. It can only be a problem your end. I can take it to Tech Support, but the first thing they will ask is "have you tried another browser". Which OS & Browser are you using? Is anyone else having the same problem? Link to comment

If you are also able to screen dump to show what you are searching and seeing would be helpful Link to comment

Here's an example of a typical search (done on the main page). Twist NFATW205 - ex Nathan Stokes Twist, sold to Simon Steel last winter No results. It's like this for anything I search for.

Look at the image below, and check you have all the same boxes marked as me Click on the 'Activity' tab, then scroll over to the word 'Search' and click it, then you will get the same screen as the picture. IF all the same buttons are ticked/marked as the picture, If you write nfatw205 in the long white bar underneath 'Search The Community' , then enter or hit the 'Search content' button at the bottom of screen, you should get 2 results.

Because at the time i posted that i had 2 results , it didn't include that actual post where i typed nfatw205 in the post , but any search after will be 3 or more ( depending how many more times we write nfatw205 in this thread.
