Search Not Working

chocoholic123

I was looking for mag dailies as I do once or twice a week. I searched for: (MD) - clicked: Discussions - Category: Competition Time and Date Updated from 2022-09-21 and got 317 results - way more than I was expecting. Most were out of date. So I played about and whatever date you choose you get 317 results, eg I tried 2022-04-01 for example and still got 317 results. Anyone know how to report it please?

@chocoholic123 There is already a post on Site Feedback about search by date not working. Perhaps you could add further detail here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6389470/filtering-forum-search-results-by-date#latest

I agree but it is just the date range function that is not working.

... is the search I used, and by searching by newest, only the first 39 of the 304 it found were from the date range I specified.
