Searching the Forums
Searching Posts To help you find information that you need, the forum includes a powerful search tool. The Post Search allows you to search for posts containing certain words, or for posts made by a certain user. It has the following fields for you to use (top to bottom):
If more than one page of results is found, then you can move between them using the buttons to the right of the screen (the and buttons).The button will also appear on the search results page(s). Clicking it will take you back to the search page.Back to Top Searching User ProfilesThe User Search allows you to search for usernames, or various fields of user profiles containing certain words. For example, you could search for users with 'Buffy' as part of their username, or users who share the same hobbies as you.
Search results will appear all on one page. Thus, depending on your search term, the resulting page could take a while to load, especially on a slow connection. (For example, searching for users with the word "Buffy" among their favorites, or "hotmail.com" in their email address - or searching by gender - will yield a long, slow page.) Please keep this in mind when choosing your search terms. Back to TopPlease Note: The forum search engine is entirely separate from the Site Search engine. If you wish to search the BuffyGuide.com site, you will need to click here or choose 'Site Search' from the Site Navigation. Also, the search box at the top of these instruction pages will not search the forums it only searches this User Manual. Back to Top PreviousNext Back to Contents |
