I've just tried to search for book reviews in the Sci Fi forum,
and got diddly squat in return (even though there are abundantly still threads with "Book Review:" in the title).

Is anyone else seeing this problem?

I just did a search for book review and got at least 3 pages of results :dunno:

I didn't specify where to look for them...just did a full search.

*edit* also did a specific search and got several pages of results :scratch:

Wierd,
I followed exactly the same sequence as before, and now it works fine..... ?

Except it doesn't work if you link from the Sci Fi forum??? I can search from this forum fine, but if I search for "Book Review:" in the Sci Fi Search This Forum quick link, or advanced search, then it returns no matchs?

Has someone got something against my forum damnit.... :p

FallguyIf you search for Book Review: (with the colon) you get no hits, if you miss off the colon the you get quite a few. So from now on don't use the colon :)

Oh darnit,
but it used to work with the colon... thats why ALL my book reviews start with the words "Book Review:" and then the title of the book.... sigh.

Oh well, I'll just crawl back under my rock now..... :lol:
