Using Search at the bottom of the boards?

mantle · May 2009

I have tried searching for words and phrases that I KNOW are in the boards, but it always comes up with no results. Anyone else notice this or am I doing something wrong?

You aren't doing anything wrong, the search function sucks.

Yeah, I don't know why TheKnot/Bump/Nest can't get a decent search function. It's not like they aren't making bank off the site.

FYI - I've had some luck using google, particularly if I go into the advanced search fields and only search https://community.thebump.com.

It has always sucked. I can remember in 2003 being on The Knot and having it suck. Pointless.

Yup. I can't remember a time when it's worked.

yea, in google, if you type your search words and add this after your search terms -

site:thebump.com

it will only search on thebump.com

I actually remember a time when it worked. It was long long ago.

And here I thought the working search function was merely a mythical creature!
