Forum Search Problems


Alpha Release 3 General Discussion

I would search the forum for the answer to this problem, but there seems to be an issue with the forum search. When I use the Forum Search function, it searches all of Paizo.com! I just want to search one section for grapple rules discussions, for example.

I am using Firefox 2.0.0.13. Is that a problem? Just curious if anyone else if having this same problem.

I am downloading Internet Exploder 7 right now, but I'd rather not use it.

Thank you.

Edit: Downloaded the Internet Exploder 7 .exe file and started the install. Of course, it crashed trying to install. This is why I am trying to avoid Microsoft products.

It's us, not you. Thanks for pointing that out—we'll look into it.

Vic, thank you for the response. Any luck getting the problem fixed? When I search for 'grapple' in the forums, I still get over 100 returns from all over the Paizo website. Good luck with the trouble shooting!

Bear in mind that even when this issue is fixed, that searching is still nerfed, so you'll only be able to find posts that are the first in their respective thread. It makes it difficult to search for answers to question you might have seen in the past, or for off-topic posts later on, unless yo remember the first post.

Thank you, yoda8myhead, it is making things difficult when I want to comment on Pathfinder RPG, because I can only comment by reading threads. I really want to search for things like grapple or skills, but there is not real way to search the forums. Oh well, I will do my best.
