Forum Search facility

Maybe I’m blind and this is a stupid question but where is a simple text search feature for the Forum so that relevant topics can be readily found?

I cannot think of any other forum I use that doesn’t provide this highly useful facility.

Happy to have my blindness corrected.

I’m with you js.mcskimming, we both must be blind :frowning:

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi @js.mcskimming and @Bernie, our apologies for the inconvenience. Currently the search option is unavailable in our forum due to a technical issue and we are working on fixing it.

Thanks @Piumi_Sharesight, it’s good to know I’m not going bonkers :wink:

Search is still down.

Whilst you wait if you start a topic, Sharesight community forum will look for duplicate topics/posts so as not to duplicate unnecessarily topics. This is a basic form of “search”.

After posting the exact same question, this topic appears. Nothing prompted that this was a duplicate.

And still no search function in Jan 26?

Fantastic response times. ‘Technical issue’? Haha. If a technical issue lasted 18 months without being resolved, the team responsible would be fired. Hey maybe that’s why it’s never been addressed … :joy:

Like far too software providers, once you’re a subscriber and ‘locked in’, servicing the community becomes a minor irritant. It doesn’t help revenue growth or increase subscriber numbers so why bother. I’m no longer waiting for a fix. Or anything much by way of resolution of problems that don’t meet the either or both of the above criteria - revenue growth and/or subscriber growth. Call me cynical if you wish …
