Forum search syntax

Is there any documentation for the Forum search syntax? or USB -Pi to exclude postings with Pi in them. On a related note: Amazon seems to have a very dumb search as well. I contacted customer support who knew less than me! i.e. they didn’t know -FRED would omit items with FRED in them! |

For a start: unless it’s changed recently, you can only search using entirely lower case. |

SeArch & search both give 526 results! |

If you want advanced search, just use Google with “+site:riscosopen.org/forum” included as part of the search query. |

Good point Andrew, I’ve used google and site: many times on other sites like hp.com amazon.com whose own searches are useless! |

But note that the ‘+’ character itself now achieves nothing – it’s no longer a supported operator. (It doesn’t appear to ‘break’ the results – but it doesn’t actually serve any purpose). |
