Using the search feature

Post by faceless »

If you're ever looking for a specific thread then it can be a bit tricky using the built-in search feature, so here's the right way to use it correctly. Say you wanted to search for 'Big Brother Eviction' you would actually type big AND brother AND eviction. It's the 'AND' that makes the difference.

I've now replaced the search feature with an inbuilt google version - it looks mostly ok, though it seems to offset incorrectly when the results are displayed. I'll hopefully get that sorted somehow.

also, I fixed the text colour for logging in so you can now see what you're doing.
