Enhance the search?

Postby gunnarkr » Jan 31st, '07, 16:29



I wanted to look for a review of a certein item.
I wrote the name in the search window and narrowed the search to: Reviews and tips in Catagory. I got 444 matches!
I tried to narrow the search, but I never got under 400 matches.

So, I have a suggestion! I don't know if it's technically possible, but it would be so good if search could be defined also to Topic Title Only.
So if I want to look for a certein topic, I click: Topic Title Only, and voila! :D Everybody is happy...

Today it's only possible to define: Search topic title and message text
or Search message text only.

Are you with me?

It doesn't :cry: ! Try a Google Search, that usually finds things more efficiently.

In Google, supposing you're looking for "Royal Road to Card Magic". Try entering the following search phrase:

site:.talkmagic.co.uk "Royal Road to Card Magic" +review
