+gof1949 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I try to search for a topic on the forums using the search function but it doesn't work! When I click on the search icon nothing happens. Tried hitting enter too and that doesn't do anything either. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment
+cerberus1 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I started from the general area, and simply typed in "function". Worked as normal. Are you using words less than 3 characters ? Quote Link to comment

You just have to decide how the Topic question may have been asked. Use a Google Search formatted like this, which is "site:forums.geocaching.com" followed by the query text even without quotation marks like "many caches in one day". Using that query, the result at the bottom of the Google Search page produces one of the many Threads about "how could anyone find more than X caches per day?", with lots of possibilities answered.
