turbodiesel#44 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Itz Finnomonawl I telz ya. :laugh: I'm no programmer, but it doesn't seem like it would be that difficult to make the ES search box query the google database and return a results page. Probably easier than running an internal search and tying up the server as it is, with the poor results. Otherwise, I nominate this thread as a permanent sticky.

I'm awake because my dogs barked their heads off at a gust of wind, and I'm very pissed off that I'm awake. Well, I was until I read that. Thanks for the laugh, Jumbo, back to bed.

Mark The Homer Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I am disappointed to see this thread off the sticky Read Me list. Yes, I know I can "favorite" the link, and I did, but it gets lost with all the other crap I have bookmarked. And what about all the n00bs? IMO, if this thread is going to be allowed to fall into oblivion, the google extremeskins search link should be incorporated into the site somehow. And BTW, the normal search seems worse than it was before the IT guys started tinkering with it. Is it still not indexed? For example, if I search for Kangaroo, how come the Kangaroo TV thread doesn't come up? That's one example of many. Thanks Edited message to ES Staff: Stickied 3 minutes after the bump. Is that the best you can do??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Dave Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 We've all complained about the search feature and how could use a bit of a tune up but since there is no real easy fix I figure google could help us. Google search soley for Extremeskins. Works perfectly. Here try it out and maybe bookmark it. Now no more "search didn't work" excuses . And yes I googled to make sure this wasn't a repost. You might need to update the extremeskins google search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Guy. Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 You might need to update the extremeskins google search. I don't think so. It still works fine - it searched extremeskins.com not extremeskins.com/forums/ so it still works fine. Also I think the google search is useless since the es search works fine from my limited testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I use your search it gives me results but when I click on the link it says "Not Found The requested URL /forums/showthread.php was not found on this server." Have you actually tried the search and got results and tried to click one of the results link? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
