It is worth knowing that words of 2 letters or less are ignored in the main searches, along with a few common words (e.g. the, many, who, what, where, help).
The downloads search option is slightly different - you can enter in
part of the download name - e.g. if you search for 'monk' it will show you all the monkey downloads. The search engine will ignore phrases of 3 letters or less however.
Choosing the right words to include in your search can mean the difference between success and failure, so be sure to try out a few different combinations. :hacker:
And remember - your default browser settings will hide very old threads from your view in the forums normally, but the search button will include them! So even if you don't see a topic in a forum area it doesn't mean that one isn't there to help you out.

Now you have mastered the search option you will be able to fly through the forums, getting fast and helpful information!
Of course, if after all this you still cannot find the information you are looking for then it may be your question hasn't cropped up before. If there's a topic that seems relevant to what you want, add the question into there. If not by all means start a new thread.
Above all though, make sure your post adheres to our
Forum Rules.
