Can't search for specific phrases?

[Star555]

I was trying to search for posts about the TV show Children of the Stones so I just typed the title into the Mumsnet search box. The results that came up were all irrelevant, all having to do with either children or stones but not Children of the Stones. I also tried searching with the title in quotes, but the same thing happened.

But when I typed Mumsnet Children of The Stones into a Google search bar, the first result was a relevant one which led me to an actual Mumsnet post about Children of The Stones!

Am I using Mumsnet search incorrectly? How can I ensure that the real Children of The Stones results will show up when I search on Mumsnet? Thank you.

Nope. I find this. I can't search anymore.

At the moment the main search function is only searching for thread titles and opening posts which explains what's happened here because there aren't any titles or opening posts containing this phrase.

We know this isn't ideal and we've just released an 'advanced search' feature that will search everything.

You can find that here: www.mumsnet.com/search/advanced?query=Children+of+the+Stones

There's a link on the main search page and also on the top of each talk topic and thread section.

Hope this helps!

Oh this is perfect! Thank you @KatyMumsnet.

Thank goodness. Missing 'advanced search', thank you.
