New Forum layout problems / bugs / How Do I?

Mariobug25

Why is it taking so long to implement the so called priorities? How long has it been now? Really starting to lose faith that this is being worked on at all! I don’t believe that the tech team behind this forum would need weeks on end to make little changes such as adding the enter : skip button on the main page and search results.

hiya, love the new lay out sort of, been using the search as described by sleepyjones, however that seems to be not doing what I want it to do and has been doing since the post above.... any tips also can we search by date order yet.... really struggling bit of a slow coach, but any help would be appreciated   Rgds Tompob

I suspect you mean Sort by date order rather than Search by date order. There is currently no way of sorting the forum into date order.
The last post of the thread: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6105585/searching-by-e-20-02-showing-old-expired-comps#latest, does tell you how to search on a specific end date and group of end dates, however, Search is not currently working properly and is not including any threads posted since 8:30 PM on 26th Feb. This has been reported and will, hopefully, be fixed shortly.

When you hit 10,000 points you get access to the old forum

Does anyone know how to search for mag dailies? When I put (MD) in the search box, it comes up with mag dailies from last year and thank you posts.

I don't do Mag Dailies and don't know what you would expect to get from a search but have a go with https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/search?Page=&adv=1&author=&cat=72&date=&discussion_d=1&search=&tags=&title=%22%28MD%29%22&within=1+day and see how that looks.

Whilst search is playing up, you could just go to the mags home pages on the following link and then open the ones you are interested in from there.
