Please, could you find some time to um, do some magic with the Apollo search boxes? I was just trying to find some code snippets in the codebase, and no matter what text I entered into the searchbox, it always returned "We could not find any CodeBase entries that matched your search for <insert any word here>".

agreed. i think the codebase could do with a make-over, it seems like its sort of been forgotten.

i agree. i think the codebase should have a link that goes to the list, too... when u click on the codebase button near the top of the page, u have to type in '_list' to the end of the URL. and maybe it needs something else to get people to use it more. because, like goorf said, its sort of been forgotten... i notice that most, if not all, newbies to the forum dont use it. i think it might be because they dont know its even there.

Yeah, its pretty hard to find, if you dont know its there.

Edit:
Maybe under the help forums, there could be just a simp link...like have you checked the codebase or something like that.

I reckon the search issues with the codebase is similar to the forum's own search. As for the codebase, is there really much point to it with the code snippets board there aswell?

When you click the $c button at top of forum, it takes you to yor personal codebase entries and the search box will only search YOUR entries. There is a link at bottom of page to goto live codebase where you can search all entries. It works just fine.

Boo!

Ah, thanks for clearing that up spooky, I feel dense now.

Rich, please disregard this thread and feel free to slap me around a bit with a large trout.

Ummm, can't you just go to the codebase from the drop-down list at the top of the forum page?
