Okay - what happened to the search function now...AGAIN

[Motorheader]

Since the upgrade the search function from the top of the topic bar has been working *better* for me. Posts sorted by date as it was a couple of years ago.

So I try searching again today and now it appears in some random order - oh dear PLEASE say it we don't have that damn good for nothing "relevance" sort order back.

In addition the advanced function - sort by date choice is gone.

IMHO - search is broken AND blows chunks yet again. If I goto the first page of the FS forum and type in the first word I see in the title topic - let's say 256mb - my first 5 search results end up coming up from over 5-6 weeks ago.

The example I am using is member "PremiumG" and his 256mb PC133 in his title. Currently on the first page of FS/T. It doesn't even come up on the first page of search results. It doesn't even come up until about a half way down on page 2 of the search.

And now the sort order under advanced doesn't even stick like it used to when you had to get a damn cookie to make that broken "feature" work.

Before you all go off the deep end I just put an update in play for this. It was ordering by thread rating by default. It won't do that now unless you click that in advanced search.

Okay...it seems to be working better again. Guess I cancel my one way ride to the bridge.
