Searching the Forum.

[highestbid]

I really would like to do a better of job of searching for answers before I reask the same old questions, but I am having a bit of a problem. It is likely that I am doing this wrong so someone can straighten me out.

Let's say I want to know if you can play netflix over a pch.

I search for 'netflix pch'

The problem is it just gives me the threads the topics appear in but the posts inside the topic and many have dozens even hundreds of posts.

Is there a way to search at the post level instead of the thread level?

In the search option chose the radio button to Show Results as Posts rather than Threads.

what a good question

Wish I'd asked this ages ago, I've been hanging around on this Forum for years and never found anything more than you've suggested but then I never asked!

1) Is there a better way?
2) If not then at least this is pretty much the most friendly Forum ever and people don't mind asking a question again if you've bothered searching around for an answer 1st and if there is an answer will point you in a posts direction.
3) Haven't tried other search engines as I'm a google kid but generally if you use a search engine for your parameters and add 'GBPVR' to your search you will get any relevant hits to posts on the Forum that don't often come up when you search the Forum itself.

Ha ha, thanks Martin, now I never even played with that option, 'cos I never saw it!

All the best

I'm afraid I leave it to google as I find the include and exclude bits work better for me.
