Hello, if I am blind and there is a big "search" button that I am overlooking, I appologize. There is a lot of great info on this board, and I was wondering if there is some way to search through all the posts/threads to see if a particular question/topic was already discussed without having to read every single one.

Thanks.

there is no search function because it was abused in the past or overused anyways. i don't think there are plans to bring it back...

There is a search function, but it's only deserved for admins.

However, you can still search using google. Just type in what you want to search for, and then add "site:board.acmlm.org" (without the "s) at the end.

Actually, I can see it, and I'm a local mod...I'm not sure if I see it because I'm staff, or because it was added in the recent update, though...

Its not an admin function, admins just control what the minimum powerlevel is to use it.

It is an Admin feature if only Admins can use it. See, if you could use it, then it wouldn't be. Get it?

For some reason search shows up for me (which it didn't before while being a regular user) but it's... not working for me either. If it's not for every staff member, it shouldn't appear in the menu.

neotransotaku:It wasn't abused in the past but... it put strain on the server. Looking through a big database takes a quite deal of CPU power. It bogged the whole server down for a few seconds or so when someone searchs for stuff.

Edit: Odd... it works for me now. Oh well, that's good at least.

It is allowed for all staff to search. The search is just buggy as all hell and never really worked right to begin with.
