Hoorah! New 'Search'

[brachiopod]

The Monks have finally updated the search function!!!

It now searches the whole site, not just one category, the results are slightly more expanded, so that you get a better idea of the whole question, and, best of all, you can search for a phrase by using " ".

Previously if you searched using two words, (say 'pink' and 'panther') most searches would return results where those two words occurred together.
But not on AB, no. It returned any results that contained the word 'pink', aswell as any that contained 'panther'.

So by including MORE words in your search, you actually returned MORE results, rather than narrowing the results down.

Thank god it's been sorted !!

I think you could always search the whole site, by using the search prompt on the home page... but the results were rubbish wherever you started from. Much improved.

The updated Search came online 24th Jan.

I agree and have used it several times.
