A new or improved search engine for the forums. One that does not require us to use google to search for specific topics instead of words or segments.

Re: Search Engine
We could always add a "Google Custom Search" box to the main header or something like that. As far as searches go, Google gets the most relevant results.

Re: Search Engine
I've seen some forums with a Google search box inside the search page, but I really doubt you can get any better than Google.

Re: Search Engine
I really wouldn't mind google, just something that does not require to leave the forums. I mean its easier to go to google.com straight and search there than it is to use our search engine to look for a specific topic.

Re: Search Engine
I second the vote for a revamped search function. As of right now, it's unacceptable!

Re: Search Engine
Especially that you can't find phpbb2 forum posts with it.
Great information lies in those old posts. So many already answered posts could be made irrelevant with a new search engine.

Re: Search Engine
So bic - how do we go about doing that? Is it something that could be added today-ish? Please!?bicostp wrote:We could always add a "Google Custom Search" box to the main header or something like that. As far as searches go, Google gets the most relevant results.

Re: Search Engine
Just need to add the Google custom search box to the overall_header.html file, but that requires FTP access so either Sponge or Ben has to do it.
