(Sorry, the search function is timing out a lot on me today, so if this question has been addressed before, I apologize.)
Why is it that when I do a vanity search and select “Search All Open Forums,” I don’t get a list of all my most recent posts.
To clarify, leaving ALL the criteria the same, if I search for all posts by user name pulykamell and leave everything else on default setting, I get extra results if I search forum-by-forum rather than by a metasearch.
For example:
Today’s search: Search by User Name: pulykamell. Search in Forum(s):Search All Open Forums. All other settings at default. (At Least 0 replies; Find Posts from A Week Ago and Newer; Sort results by Last Posting date in Decending Order. Also search child forums checked.)
Three hits for today:
It’s Not An Urban Myth, It’s True
S-M-I-T-H pronounced BROWN
Anyone been to Poland? What’s not to be missed (and what’s to be avoided)?
Same search, only criterium changed is Search in Forums(s):MPSIMS
Four hits for today:
*Critique my Photoshoppery
Do you northerners have had-head for 6 months
It’s Not An Urban Myth, It’s True
Anyone been to Poland? What’s not to be missed (and what’s to be avoided)
*
If I search IMHO, there’s two threads from today that the metasearch misses.
Am I doing something wrong, or is there a quirk in the software?
