Hello.

Search is not broken; it's just a little, er, challenged at the moment.

In other words, it searches for key words and nicknames as normal but you can't pre-select Topics to search under.

Sorry. We're yelling at BigTech about it working on fixing that as soon as we can.

Oh dear. Didn't realise some people couldn't get Search to work at all - sorry.

Promise to alert the Techs tomorrow.

Are you all on Internet Explorer, by any chance?

OK, it would be really helpful if you could all give us a bit more info about this.

Are you having problems with Search or Advanced Search?

Is it completely bust for you - or just part of it (such as selecting Topics, like flowerybeanbag has noticed)?

And is this only happening in Internet Explorer? Or are you using another browser?

Thanks PuzzleRocks. Would you just mind giving that Search button a whirl from the Home page too, please (it's right at the top on the right)?

Anyone else?

Ooh, well that's good

We're on the case with the other stuff - but it may take us a while...

Hi everyone. Just to let you know that we are working on this but it may take us a while.

Sorry that it's all so frustrating for you.

In the meantime, if you're on Internet Explorer and can change to Firefox, you may find things are better.

Hope you find that handbag thread, Tommy! It wasn't this one, was it?
