    Search for "money" on all boards.

    I seem to be getting up to date search results now. :D

    Thanks to whoever sorted that.

    Yes - appears to be working normally (for now at least).

    Thanks to whoever for doing whatever.

    I must say I'm very, very disappointed that the problem existed for 3 days, this thread was started Friday afternoon and I know numerous members sent emails and PMs reporting the problem. Yet there was no official response at all - even to say "we know about the problem and are investigating".

    Means that I subscribe to all threads I post on, but without emails unless I decide to change that option.

    Works for me, but as said may not be useful for everyone.

    It also can't help with all the the problems caused by a non functional/updating forum search. For example, can't tack down all the recent posts from spammers while it's broken. :(

    Thank you Fermi :) I don't understand what subscribe actually does (apart from the emails) - what's the advantage of using it? Sorry to be so dense :o
