how do i search the forums by thread and keywords ?

[shanek17]

Hey im shane keskeny, iv been using this website over the last couple years and I used to be able to search for keywords by thread. So if i wanted to find all threads with fermenter conditioning in them i could do that. but I longer see the option for it. The only option i found was the top left corner of the website there is a search option but it seems to just to a broad search of everything.

Click the drop down menu for search at the top left of the page and choose the "advanced search" option.

yea i tried that already and it just gives me thousands of search results. I searched for ferment condition and I got this many results "About 6,960 results (0.21 seconds)"

Once i clicked on advanced search I dont see any options for "advanced searching" it just searchs everything and doesnt help me narrow it down.

Advanced search -> click the drop down under keyword and select search by title.

Use this:

http://www.google.co.uk/advanced_search?hl=en

Googles search engine will search any specific site. Just put in the key words and the site. I this case www.homebrewtalk.com


And you'll get [ame="http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&as_q=fermenter+conditioning&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&lr=&cr=&as_qdr=all&as_sitesearch=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.homebrewtalk.com%2F&as_occt=any&safe=images&tbs=&as_filetype=&as_rights="]http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&as_q=fermenter+conditioning&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&lr=&cr=&as_qdr=all&as_sitesearch=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.homebrewtalk.com%2F&as_occt=any&safe=images&tbs=&as_filetype=&as_rights=[/ame]

Advanced search -> click the drop down under keyword and select search by title.

none of these options are under advanced search. there is just a search bar for you type in what your looking for. i will show you what i see on my screen after i clicked on advanced search.

yea it looks like home brew talk removed the feature to search advanced within its own site or its having technical difficulties. Ill give your way a try , thanks.
