Thanks for bringing back the forum search feature.

However, it does not seem to be returning all matches for a search query. For example, I know that a tab of "Born on the Bayou" is in the Easy Song Database, but a simple search of the word bayou returns 6 matches, none of which is the thread containing that tab.

Is search being limited in some manner? Older threads seem least likely to be returned in a query, though these would be the ones I'd most want to access using search (rather than scrolling through the forum pages.)

Another example: I searched for eagles, and got a nice list of forum threads, ending with Peaceful Easy Feeling from page 5 of the Easy Songs Database. However, page 6 of the ESD contains " Take It Easy - Eagles " which was not listed in the search results.

Help? :cry:

The search may be limited and doesn't search really far back. This makes the seacrh a little faster.

Thanks Paul. No offense, but that sorta defeats the purpose to a degree.

I'd much rather have a search that gives complete results, even if it takes a few seconds longer.
