Forum Search Function - Search Posts

Is it just me, or is the Search Posts function not working at all since the Paizo site update?

It used to be a pretty reliable tool to quickly search a thread to find a relevant post from earlier in a campaign, now all my searches come up with:

Your search didn't match any items.

Anyone else experiencing this problem?

The search function was problematic even before the store upgrade. I find it generally works for posts older than around 2 years, but doesn't see anything later than that.

I can't get it to even pick up things I posted today... that sucks, ah well.

Neither can I; all I can see with the search are posts older than a couple of years.

Ah, misread that post.

In some cases that would actually help me as my main game has been going 14 years.

Looking at your original Bloodlines gameplay thread, a search for "Brice" gives 173 hits.

Ah you are correct. Thank you for going that extra mile!

Damn, you are correct. The First, Second, and Third threads are all searchable. The new thread is not. I guess all new threads are non functioning using search and the old threads are. Quite strange.


Very strange - I wish there was a way to report this?

I thought about it but I am sure IT at Paizo has better things to do than fix this.
