Advice in how to use search function please! (If this forum is monitored?)
I can rarely get the search function to work despite trying various search strings. For example, this evening I started a thread on a player we have apparently made an offer on but not before trying several times in the search function to find if he already had a thread which threw up no results. It is not the first time I have started a new thread having found no results on a search only to be told in no uncertain terms that a thread already exists!
- I get results with random mentions of my search string words (searching all inc. titles) but not the thread I want unless I put every word in the thread title search as on the original thread and in the right order
Any tips please so I don’t duplicate threads already started by other people and can actually find the old threads I remember but that also don‘t seem to come up in the search very easily.
