Search function?

So.... I have been struggling terribly with the search function.  It doesn't seem to work. 

I put in a search term, tell the engine I only want to search ONE subforum, and then it just returns all the posts that have been made in that subforum! 

Trying to re-vamp the Trader List is proving next to impossible if I can't look up an ID, find the thread discussing it, and save the URL...  someone please give me some help or advice... thanks!

It hasn't worked for me the last several times I've tried to use it.  :sad: I've had better luck using Google to search for the topic than I've had here.

Ever since I've been properly active on here (about four months now), the search function has worked about 50% of the time. Often reloading the page works though

Taxel:
It absolutely will not work if you're trying to search for multiple words (like "so soft") and seems hit or miss otherwise.

I just Google "mlparena [what I want to search for]" and click for the results from mlparena.com (and then remove "mlparena" from the search bar sometimes). You can do it without the extra steps but I can never remember the exact way to type it in so Google automatically searches a specific site.

lovesbabysquirmy:
Yeah, admittedly I have used the Google + "MLPArena" search before... but I really wish the search engine would work properly again.  :( 

Mods, are there settings tied to the search engine that have been disabled so that non-members can't search, etc.?
