Title: Searching............nothing found?
Post by: Tuicemen on May 24, 2006, 01:10:07 PM

A few weeks back I noticed while doing a search that some posts I'd found before I could no longer find!
After some playing I found the reason! and this may be why so many say it is of no help to them.
When doing a search go to the forum you think the posts will be in and click search from there. You wont find many post about Phase couplers in the AHP SDK section ! ;) :D hope this will help some. ;) :)
Also this helps narrow down a search if your looking for something that only applies to say a plug-in .
Another option is to click on Advanced search then you can be more specific with the search!

Title: Basic vs. Advanced Searching! What's the Difference?
Post by: Tuicemen on November 30, 2006, 10:49:20 AM

The difference between a Basic Search and an Advanced Search is:

Basic Search:

• Searches *ONLY* the current forum.(the section your in)

Advanced Search:

• Searches *ANY* or *ALL* forums, individually selectable.
• Option to "Match ALL words" or "Match ANY word".
• Option to select ONE Member or *ALL* Members.
• Option to return COMPLETE MESSAGES instead of just title.
• Option to select DATE RANGE (Between XX and YY days old).
• Several SORTing options: Date / Relevance / Size - Ascending, Descending.

So,

all you Guests, Lurkers and Newbies:

***Please Start Using the not new, but VASTLY superior Advanced Search (http://www.x10community.com/forums/index.php?action=search;advanced) ***

(because you never know *WHERE* your answer may be found... :o )
;)

****Cheers****
