The search option of this forum is terrible. MyBB is a terrible platform.
Searching for issues on this platform is hard and brings up terrible results. Hence the reason questions have to be answered multiple times. The administrators really need to change to a better forum platform such as phpbb or smf.
Rant over.
ChrisI Agree...
There's a direct menu Link missing.... for 'advanced search'...
and it's hard to find,
https://forum.blitzortung.org/search.php
which is somewhat better... hint: 'show results as POST'
Can get there from a 'regular page, this way:
Leave field blank. Click 'Search'
Page opens, note the breadcrumb menu:
Blitzortung.org Forum › Search
Click ' Search ' breadcrumb.
You can also reach it at bottom of a page which shows
'Forum Jump'
"Go"
select 'Search'.
Tobi owns the forum, and MyBB can be updated,... he simply does not have time. There are
some improvements over the current production version, but it's a major upgrade, and Tobi has a very busy life.
ADD... Forum IS currently running latest version.

Thanks Mike. It's frustrating. If Tobi gave access to a volunteer to update and chane to a better platform the work load would be off him. I found this article on smf.

Anyhoo, it is what it is.
