Is anyone else having a problem with the site search feature, or has there been a recent change as to how it works?
For the last week or so, I find that only searches for a single work give any results. If you search for 2 or more words, no results. |

Seems to be working fine for me - try (because it's a heuristic search) joining words with + (e.g race+team) and remember that all search terms must be greater than 3 characters.

I understand the basic premise, that it doesn't waste time searching for words like 'the', 'at', 'is', etc. But it's a PITA on a motoring forum, especially given the penchant for acronyms. Can't search for ABS, DPF, FPV, BF, GT, etc. |
