TFL archives missing and search not working?

C Philip · December 4, 2006, 07:49 PM

The search function is not working for me. It says nothing found even when I type in words that are obviously in threads, even ones I just looked at. Also in some of the forums there are only 3-10 pages of threads (the General Handgun Forum only shows 3 total pages of threads and General Discussion shows 5), when there are obviously more than that. Has one of the servers crashed or something?

Searching is fixed. If it crashes again, it'll be restarted within 2 minutes. Maybe it didn't even crash. Maybe I somehow broke it yesterday afternoon.

What do you mean about the number of threads? Has it decreased? You can customize the thread age cut-off: UserCP->Edit Options->Default Thread Age Cut Off. The current value is shown on the left side of the page toward the bottom, when you're viewing a main forum page.

Search is working like a freaking trooper now.

Thanks!
