29 Apr 09 - 12:13 AM (#2620938) Subject: RE: Search Acting Weird From: Jim Dixon It doesn't work for me either. Fortunately the "Google Custom Search" works pretty well. |
29 Apr 09 - 12:27 AM (#2620942) Subject: RE: Search Acting Weird From: Shalini If you want to search for, say, "Blackwaterside" on Mudcat: On google search, type in blackwaterside site:mudcat.org |
29 Apr 09 - 02:59 AM (#2620982) Subject: RE: Mudcat Search Acting Weird From: Joe Offer Our search function is more than a little tempermental. I notified Max that it's on the fritz. In the meantime, check the FAQ (click) for the wide variety of other search functions we have available. Shalini's idea is a good one. I think I'm going to have to add site-specific Google search instructions to the FAQ. I'm rather partial to the Filter, myself. -Joe- |

29 Apr 09 - 03:47 AM (#2621008) Subject: RE: Mudcat Search Acting Weird From: VirginiaTam In my experience it has been more on than off, but I have only been here a short while. Wish it was not on the blink this week though. I am home from work and free to search. I cannot access Mudcat at work anymore. It has the Essex County Council stamp of disapproval. |
29 Apr 09 - 02:19 PM (#2621367) Subject: RE: Mudcat Search Acting Weird From: Max I re-indexed the search today, so it is fixed, active and up to date. Enjoy. |

29 Apr 09 - 03:05 PM (#2621403) Subject: RE: Mudcat Search Acting Weird From: VirginiaTam whoo hoot! Glad it's back. Having said that I extend thanks to Joe Offer and his advice to use the filter. I made out ok today. |
