I am not able to do a search for two words in either text or titles. For example, if I want to search for a post on Schwinn Paramount I get entries that include either word. I want to search for entires that include both words. Is there a way to do this? A way to have it search for exact text, in other words, the two words in that order?

Thank you,

Mirkee

use the search "Schwinn Paramount" with the quotes. Granted, this will only return threads with the full phrase. I agree that the search functionality could be beefed up. Not sure how much there is to that, so I will let Joe look into that.
