flamegrilled Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Hi, When I search for anything,be it for icc software right now as I cannot for the love of mike get the email alert to work for gmail on the PI, it does nothing.it searches finds nothing and big brother then says wait 19 seconds for the next try. I have come across this a few times.It has worked once or twice,but I feel it should work for any query be it one or two or more words. What has happened to the software sub category too? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too find the search frustrating. You never find what you want the first time, and by the second time you get sent to the naughty corner for some seconds.

Energy-Jason Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Haha. If only you knew how many scammers try to destroy this place. ;)) I will get us a 3rd party search app this weekend. Sincerely J Chris Hobson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The search function on this site is so irritating, you can't even go to page 2 without having to wait 17 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Energy-Jason Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Thanks for the feedback- the search function is being addressed in the next few patch updates. I have thrown a very large amount of server resource to it to make it slightly better, Power-forum is highly indexed on google - your strategy of using google will work great if the built in search is a bit slow. Thanks for the feedback Sincerely Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
