Exclamation Search not finding my for sale ad...

Why can't I find my XR10 for sale ad when I search the for sale forum?

I just searched the word "remember" and it was the second one on the search list. First unique word I saw in the thread.

Does it show up when you search for XR10 or xr10 ? That was what I was basing my search upon...

I just edited the body to include XR10, previously it was just in the title...

Here is your second free bump.

Yes, searching "XR10" it was 9th down the list.

i'm not really asking for free bumps but thank you for your help.

Either way, when I search xr10 I only get 6 results and none of them are my ad...

OK cool, as long as others are able to see it when they search I guess that's all that matters. Thanks again

What's the key to getting the search to work right? I search for stuff I know I've seen and get nothing. For instance, I know I've seen a thread on stretching 1.5's onto 1.9 rims. I searched for "stretching 1.5" and no matches. I searched "1.5 on 1.9" and no matches. I searched "stretching" and no matches. WTF?? How does the search actually seach? On the body of the thread and title? I know you can select title or post but it still comes up with nothing.

Well I searched for that exact thread and it came back with no matches. How are you expecting people to search for things when the search feature doesn't work? I can't find a thread even when I know the exact name of the thread. Ya, that makes sense.

I just searched for XR10, and yours was 11th on the list. Not sure why it's not showing for you.

I rebuilt the search index late last night. Please try your searches again and let me know.

It shows up with a lot more for me. I used an advanced search, typed in only "XR10" (no quotes) and here is what shows up:

Your ad is halfway down the page...

Are you making sure your search is for "entire post" and not just "titles only"??

Not sure if this makes a difference or not, but scroll to the bottom of the classifieds page to the Display Options. Make sure "Beginning" is selected from the "From The" drop down menu.
