Better Search Function?

I just tried searching for some Eagles songs in the Easy Song forum and I only got 17 hits. Yet several of the posts suggested that tabs were posted of several of the songs I wanted to get and none of them showed in the results? I tried searching for specific songs and got nowhere as well.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Unfortunately, the search function comes with the boards so to get a better search we'd have to change boards and what a nightmare that was last time we did it. Just do what I do and wade through the ESD I always find at least one gem I didn't know was there.

Actually over at the phpBB forum they have mods that can be added to improve forums such as these. If I remember correctly there is a mod to make the search function more accurate/faster...

I know someone posted a way to use Google to browse the forums but I can't remember for the life of me how.

It seems that when I do a search (the latest was just yesterday too), it pulls up everything in the order that it is in the forum. :? I also did one in the Bass forum a while ago and the same thing happened, so I made a new thread, and then Laz bumped one that was what I was looking for.

Maybe I'm not using the right words :?:

Got your back, buddy. ;)

Still, I s'pose it's better to have incomplete searches than no search capability at all, which was the case for a while.
