Search by date?

Can anyone else please try to do a search by date? I'm not getting it to work.
It's showing no results. I'm on Kindle tablet (Silk browser)

No luck on a PC either.

Glad it's not just me. MNHQ?

It seems to be working fine for me on a Win8 laptop. What symptoms is yours demonstrating?

catzpyjamas · 10/09/2015 13:49

It will let me search poster/ subject fine until I put in a start date, so I'm getting 15 years of results....

I just searched on you yourself as an experiment and had a result of 238 from 1 June to yesterday. (Mind you - I don't know how accurate that was.) It seems to be working for me.

Simurgh, could you please try searching with a start date of yesterday? I tried 01/06/15 and that worked but originally was trying to find something from yesterday.

Does AS work at the moment? It's been hit and miss for a while. It lies. Shock

vindscreenviper · 10/09/2015 14:55

Well if AS is working now then I don't exist and there have been no posts containing the work baby in the last 12 months.

So I think it's still broken Snow

vindscreenviper · 10/09/2015 14:56

oops
the word baby

Simurgh · 10/09/2015 15:02

Ah - now that doesn't work, catzpyjamas. (Going from yesterday.)

Simurgh · 10/09/2015 15:19

The crunch date seems to be 7th/8th September. It doesn't seem to like real short searches. (Can you tell I'm bored? Grin) It will give you results from an 07/09 to date search but not from an 08/09 to date one.

Simurgh · 10/09/2015 15:23

I had a result of the normal 500 (= 'a lot of') posts containing the word baby in the last 12 months, vindscreenviper.

BeccaMumsnet · 10/09/2015 15:30

Hi everyone - we'll let Tech know about these issues. Thanks all for posting.

exexpat · 10/09/2015 15:36

Advanced search is not bringing up anything posted today - any name I put in comes up with 0 threads, even my own, and I know I have posted on MN today Hmm But it does bring up results if I leave the date blank. (on a Mac using Safari, if that is relevant).

Simurgh · 10/09/2015 15:48

Dates left blank is being interpreted as 'everything'.

I think it's fair to say that it's having a flakey Thursday. Grin

catzpyjamas · 10/09/2015 16:40

Thanks for checking. I've never had a problem with AS before so thought it was strange.
