Don't know if this is the right place to ask. Is the search function working? I can't get it to work.

It works, but what's not clear is that narrows its focus (where it searches) based on where you are.

For example, if you are in a specific board, it will only search that board. Try going all the way back to the top level forum ("Forum" from the menu) and try a search there.

I tried "heidenau" from both the search box in the header of the site, as well as the advanced searching by using "Search" on the menu bar and got results. This sounds really odd.

Is anybody else having this issue?

I'm not sure if it is working right either? I went to search for " forks don't seem right" and forgot to put forks in my search and only my posts came up in results. ??? :eek:

:)

What color is the text in your search box? Mine has always been Black and is difficult to read. Tried to find a way to change the display to a lighter color and was unsuccessful to find anything.

The search has worked in the past though did not work last night or today. I was trying to find vendors for the Heidenau K60 Scout tires.

My text is also almost the same black as the black background. Very hard to see.

It took me a while to find that one with the enter key too Tim.
