Why isn't there a working search feature?

Seems easy enough, and very useful.

 

Thanks

Hello,

You should find the search function at the top of the page. Between where you log in, and top sport books.

Best of luck!

And lets be honest here, it hasnt worked for MONTHS.

The technology in these forums is from 2005.  It is really bad.  Makes coming here difficult.  Spam, searching impossible, format is difficult - cant you just design your site like Reddit?

I have been here forever and it is a struggle.

Hello,

If you switch to the new forums, you will see a Google search bar at the top of the main forums page where you can search the Covers Forum.

I am in the new forums.  I am hitting the magnifying glass at the top between a box that says "top sportsbooks" and my avatar.

Then the box that said top sportsbooks changes to a search field.  Enter text.  Hit enter or the magnifying glass.  Nothing happens.

 

This isnt rocket science.  Try it yourself.

How about the "Report" function?   There was a user bashing all day in NCAAF in the 2018 Bowl Under System thread and after using it nothing was or has been done.

Hello,

We are not ignoring that. Have you tried using the Google Custom Search bar at the top of the forums? We will continue to work on improving this function as the new forums evolve.

Why Google Search within the forum?   Why do I have to scroll through ads from Amazon, NBA.com, Target etc... to find a thread on the site within the site?
