    I have trouble searching, anyone else

    Hi All

    I have been using bulletin boards powered by this software for years and I have found the search engine to be terrible for all those years. It is now time to complain. Or maybe I just don't know how to use the search engine.

    For instance I just came across a thread where SVO is mentioned but put the term 'svo' into the search, check search entire post, click search and no results at all. Try 'wvo' same thing. There must be at least one thread here that mentions wvo.

    Or am I doing something wrong?

    It's the forum software and not much can be done about it, (although I find here better than most message boards)

    The trick is to use google and add "www.aulro.com/afvb" as a tag after your search query.

    Same here, it has changed. Put TD5 Oil in the search engine and nothing relevant...try putting oil and nothing at all .
