Thank you very much Josh, we appreciate your work and look forward to the results of our searches. We love our forum and being able to search through the posts makes it whole again. Trudi

Can't think of what reason that would be! Can this problem please be fixed!! I certainly has stopped me from using the exchange forum as much. Sharon

Just found it at bottom of Health forum page, not top and bottom as most forums. But at least it is there. Sandy

What I always do now is use google. I type in what I want to search followed by gardenweb. So if I want to search marble countertops, in the Google search box I'd type: marble countertops gardenweb The first thing that comes up is usually an ad for Lowe's or something... The next thing is a paragraph looking thing that looks smushier than the results below it. It's ALL GW results and right below it in smaller writing it says "more results from gardenweb.com>>" CLICK THAT. The next pages are NOTHING BUT GW RESULTS. If you bookmark that page and save it to your favorites, you can search from that page from now on. The "site.ths.gardenweb.com" can stay in the searchbox and you would just change out what's in the rest of the google search box for your search. It's really super easy. It sounds like more steps than it is. Once I figured that out, it became the only way I searched GW. I found out that threads get purged from the site after a while but stay archived in google. There's still no chronological order. But it's much more helpful than trying to do a search here.
