Each search I've done today brings me to a database error page. Is there something happening with LAF's search function? Known bug?
-
I was just about to report the same problem. No search I tried worked.
-
Interesting. Must be a bug.
-
I get an error message when I try to do a search, same issue again?
-
I've been getting a search error, too.
-
Same for me tonight. Reports a 'Database Error'
-
Yes, same here. Tried last night, returned "database error".
-
If there are any mods please can you raise a ticket for the Search Function to be fixed. Currently it does not work keeps throwing up an error.
Thanks

I was receiving that error just trying to access the site this Afternoon.
-
It works for me again...
-
The 'Database error' for search has returned, for me at least.
-
I get this error too.
-
I know it's not a solution per se, but a way around this is to go to Google, type your search topic and end it with "site:leadadventureforum.com"... e.g. "Flintloque site:leadadventureforum.com" and that should help while the problem is resolved.
-
Thanks for the tip, researching now.
-
Unfortunately still seeing the error.
Also it can take a couple of days for Google to index the posts - not really an issue but best to be aware.
-
I haven't had access to search for a good week or more.
-
Just chiming in to report the same issue, on and off for about two weeks now. I occasionally get the same message when trying to view the forum.
-
This still seems to be a problem for me - no access to search for at least a week. :(
-
Frequently plays up, easier to type your topic in to Google and see if Google can search it better.
-
I've found Google is better that DuckDuckGo - a few times Duck has returned nothing but Google found things.

Certainly better at tracking every single thing you do

So true, so true.
-
Search function isn't working for me either.
-
Yes, I had a few reports about this and have raised it with the technical admin people.

Google has annoyed me by following me around the town (various work places etc) with a search I did at home for some medical items - for weeks. Thankfully it was just a foot surgery but still... Spurred me to get a VPN and to move to DDG. I have never noted an issue with DDG not turning up some results for what I was looking for but I don't really compare either. Just curious, but when have you noted that? When looking for something new old or just rather esoteric like our gaming items?
-
I'm also having these problems - search and advanced search don't work for me.
