Can we please get an update on the broken search function?

[thwartme]

Hello,

I rely on the nzb search function quite a bit, and it has been down for some time now. Is there an admin or a mod or someone that can give us an ETA on a fix?

Thank you,

I have yet to hear back from the administrator about this, but as a workaround, you can use a regular search engine and tell it to look in filesharingtalk.com.

https://www.google.com/search?q=whatever+site:filesharingtalk.com

Thank you.

Would this then be the correct way to search for episode 3 of the tv show Damnation:

damnation s01e03:filesharingtalk.com


thanks.

No, the right way would be:


damnation s01e03 site:filesharingtalk.com

The bolded part tells the engine to search in filesharingtalk.com only and must be present verbatim, separated from the other terms by a space.

Anticipating cases like this, I once wrote a search form for the NZB section that allowed you to search using either the forum built-in engine or DuckDuckGo, even styling the results page with a FST color scheme in the latter case. But it seems to have disappeared :unsure:
