Forum Search suggestion

Postby dspaan » Thu Jan 10, 2013 3:09 pm

Over the last few months i didn't use the forum a lot but when i did i noticed i had trouble skimming through the results if i used the search option. Then i noticed that in Advanced Search i could select to display search results as topics instead of posts which made it a lot easier to skim through the results.

Therefore i suggest to set 'display as topics' as the default option for the Search function of the forum. I rest my case. :)

And if that is not enough to guide you to a relevant topic then use the google method I often use, just add "site:www.vicidial.org/VICIDIALforum/" to the google-search
example:
No leads in the hopper site:www.vicidial.org/VICIDIALforum

when i search with google, using the word vicidial along with any error reported from any screen/script/console will always result in a bunch of vicidial forum results. it will even result in a "group" of results that can be expanded if there are several. with occasional off-forum results below. i don't think i've used the forum search tool in two years. LOL (google is my friend)

Thanks, didn't know this. Very useful. But my suggestion still stands!
