Search Functionailty

I would like to suggest that the search function be improved.  Making it work more Boolean operators.  Also improving the search to also allow the person to state which forums to look in and timeframe to look through.  :-)

Thanks for the suggestion. We'll add this to our list of to-do's. We'll be making some changes to search over the next couple weeks, but allowing you to filter your results would likely be an advanced feature that won't be available for a while. We'll let you know when it is, though.

Thanks,
MedHelp

The side search is helpful.  However, it would be super cool if I had checkboxes to select all the additional forums.  In certain forums where information maybe spread out (IE: Herpes, STD, HIV, STD Expert, Herpes Expert, and HIV Expert).  Just would be neato is all.

You can do a search for each forum, but you have to be in that forum to do it.  In the upper right of each forum, just above the Recent Activity sidebar, you will see a smaller search bar.  That will search only the forum you are in.

I'll pass the rest of your suggestion on.

Thanks!
