Samba Forums Search Function?
« on: February 19, 2016, 05:25:57 PM »
The Samba's Forum search function has been down for some time now. You now have to search through Google and is nowhere near as good. I can't seem to find anything on the site about it.

Does anyone know if it will reinstated in the near future?

Thanks.

Kinda like life before the Internet.  Wonder how us old guys survived.  The hard drive is on the inside of the eyelids. 

Anything that was important has been saved on a Samba folder. And anything of a "how to" nature that had pics was dumped into a MS Word doc.  And the rest doesn't matter.

Seriously, maybe you should search the Samba for the latest Everett update.  He has been posting. Remember when Ratwell lost all his pics?  Life goes on.

At the very top of the Samba forums page there's a forum called "site", the details on the new search is in the stickies there.

Yes, I am working on another method to get the "old" way of searching back.

No target date, it may take a while.

so it sounds like the google search function is temporary...
