Searching threads

[14RMK144]

When I try to search, using the search dialog box on the threads page, when I click search I get a error page. Showing a long yellow box with a bunch of computer lingo. What am I not doing, is there settings somewhere I may need to change.
I also tried the search button in the black rectangle, but the search box just shows up for a second or two in the lower right corner of my screen then disappears. I
I am on a smart phone not a pc.

Not the answer you are looking for but I find Goggle much more capable than the SW search engine (whatever they use). I just include "Snowest" in the search phrase, plus (whatever I'm looking for). That method has never failed me yet. FWIW

same error hear the code writer for this site needs to fix its been this way for long enough to not be able to search is not performance.

I'll have Christopher look into this.

I get the same error when I just tried it.

I found out from Christopher that in the black box, click search, then advanced search. Brings you to a very friendly search. Here's a link to it.
SnoWest Snowmobile Forum - Search Forums
//www.snowest.com/forum/search.php

Found another thread about this. Here's Christophers post on topic.

The only search engine that is part of the FORUMS SOFTWARE is this.
//www.snowest.com/forum/search.php

That is tied directly into the SW database and SHOULD give you a good result if used correctly.

Is there any place that is a help wanted forum?

In the "Snow Talk" section there is a "Snowmobile Employment" sub forum

Snowmobile Employment

So yesterday I REMOVED the search box from the top of the forums.
This morning, Harris REPLACED it there again, and its still BROKEN.
