Pablo M Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I try to search my questions/issues instead of posting a new thread. Here, literally every time I have searched I come up with "Found 0 results" For example, I just found (through Google) a thread on door cards and one post said there were many threads on removing the door panel safely and to search "door service". I tried searching that term, and similar, and "Found 0 results". The irony is that in many of my searches I start here, then enter the same search terms in Google and a bunch of bmw2002faq threads come up in Google. Why don't they come up when I search here? Its a little frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators steve k. Posted October 19, 2022 Administrators Share Posted October 19, 2022 Can you post some screen shots of the search process? I am getting close to 200 results when i run that search The site search starts as something very specific to either the page you are on or forum. You can pick "everywhere" as a search option. You can also choose "Google" from the drop down and search google results without leaving the site. Thank yiou, Steve K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt change the options but I was in the 2002 forum so it should have pulled from there at least. I can try changing the search options. Below is screen grab. But I just went back and searched again, making sure to be in the 2002 and other 02 forum and got 73 results. I did just pay last night to be a member so I wonder if the search function is related to level of membership? Appreciate your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators steve k. Posted October 19, 2022 Administrators Share Posted October 19, 2022 There is no difference in search between user accounts. The membership is a financial contribution to the site with some perks. I can see from the URL that what is being searched is "Pages" wish is Articles, so most likely the search was from the home page of some article.

Pablo M Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 Thanks! User error as I suspected. Not the reason I became a paying member by the way-just showing support. Thank you for clarifying the search function. Pablo- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
