Searching Marlin Crawler Forums
« on: Aug 23, 2010, 08:09:52 AM »
OK, I'm kind of getting tired of people asking questions and getting the "Search" feedback, when the built in search function doesn't exactly work all that well.  Yeah, I know your working on it Mike, but I know you and the rest of the guys have your plates full.  So until then, I am offering an alternative that I use regularly when searching the site  Google

Some may already know this trick, but others may not so here goes.

You can use Google to search any website that you want, by appending your search string with a "site:somesamplewebsite.com".  In the case of searching these forums for detroit lockers you can type "detroit locker site:board.marlincrawler.com" into a Google search.  This returns many results, including a bunch of "print page"s that are not as nice to read as the normal forum pages, so I also append a -print to eliminate those as such "detroit locker site:board.marlincrawler.com -print".

There you have it, a search for the forums that works really well.  Mike, perhaps someday, you could replace the stock forum search with a Google search tool.

Cool, good to know!
