Noticed the quick search and love that! Great idea.

Mary pointed something out, it appears to work best for titles of threads. So if you know I want to see “Xander” or “fine dosing”. But it won’t work if you search “Brianna” since that’s never in a thread title…

Good to know! That makes sense. That might mean it doesn't really search thread content either, so if something might be important enough to need to look back on it later, it's probably worthwhile to put at least some small keyword about it into the thread title.

Interesting. So it does not search thread content, only titles?

You can still do thread content in the top right if you need to…

Yeah, I guess if you're really looking for deep thread content you should just use the main search. The quick search is would be a convenient way to find a specific day or question you had, etc!

OK, I'm blind. Where is this search capability? I can see Search option when I'm logged out, but not when I'm logged in. Since some forums are only viewable if logged in, it would be useful to see when I'm on.

Ahh, I’m dumb. I forgot to enable it for everyone. Try now.
