SS Search Feature & Watched Topic Page

[Mike_Pop]

Two issues:

I've been using the search as always suggested by other members and when I do, I always get a lot of pages that come up. When I click on the page numbers or the next page at the bottom, it never takes me to that page. I just get an error message: No searches match your criteria. I then have to hit my back button, reload, and retype my search.


Another problem is when I view my watched topics and I want to jump to a certain page, I click on the page number and get another error message: Failed to load module PNphpBB2. I've never been able to jump to a page and always had to go to the first page by clicking on the topic.

Is there a solution to these problems?

I have the same problems.

Are you guys using IE or FF ?

exact same issue here, was wonder if it was just me all this time.

Its been discused several times that the search feature is lacking but in its defense we do put erroneous terms for the problems at hand that making the search harder. But I vote new search tools

The problem isn't with the search feature itself but with error pages that come up. Since I am not the only one experiencing this, maybe it should be addressed by the SS web gurus?

its being looked into, the cause hasent been found yet.

Are you guys using IE or FF ?

Not using either...AOL browser.

That might be your first problem....

 

[Mike_Pop]

Mike...I know AOL isn't always compatible with many sites. But what are other people using that may be causing a problem?

 

[mangus580]

Possibly AOL




Try it with IE, see if the problem is there.

Mike...Just tried it with IE. Same error messages.

Honestly, the best method I've found for searching Steel Soldiers topics is to simply do a "Google" search. It hits on what your looking for, and you're there.

You might be outside looking in, but you can always stay logged onto SS with a second browser.

Just my method and

I know what you guys are talking about here is a little different. I've found that issue myself.

Search has always been a bit of a all along.

oifvet,

It's not so much the search engine itself but the error messages when trying to "jump" to other pages on the search menu or the watched topics menu.
