Searching forum help

[diddlepants]

Has anyone figured out the search function?

For example, in the Hardware forum, tanks sub forum, I search subtank (in Search Forum dropdown) and it yields no results despite having a thread with subtank in the title on the first page. I just want to see threads with subtank in the title

Hello. That seems odd, but it was the same for me. I tried using the main forum search for "Subtank" and got 200 pages of threads. I looked through the first 10 pages and none of them were from the "Tank" forum. I don't know, it might be a forum issue.

The only threads I see with "subtank" in the title are the two threads that have been deleted. Are those the two you see?

Forum search function is a crap shoot at best.

Use google to search the website - either using a Chrome extension or use "subtank site:e-cigarette-forum.com" without the quotation marks. https://www.google.com/#q=subtank+site:e-cigarette-forum.com

It's still not perfect, but it's better than the default search.

EDIT - I am wondering if you can use google to search a specific subforum of this website by including it in the search terms... OK, yes you can subtank site:http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/tanks/

Here, try the Search Forum > Advanced Search option instead. (To the right of Forum Tools - not the search options at the top of the page.) If you are already in the appropriate sub forum that will restrict the search to the sub forum you are in and any below that, not the entire realm of ECF. Also, if you think it's a reasonable bet that what you are searching for is going to be in a thread title, pick that option to Search Thread Titles Only. Some times with the ECF search engine less is more.

pssst...It's a Clearomizer

Kangertech's latest innovation is their brand new Kanger Subtank Clearomizer. It is a revolutionary tank that can be used as a clearomizer and an RBA. You have the option to use the Subtank purely as an RBA or with the new OCC coils (organic cotton coil) as a clearomizer.

so you would want to look in the Clearomizer section

Ya, thanks Classwife. Rookie mistake. I was searching for a clearomizer in the tank forum and even posted about it there, how embarrassing. Issue resolved
