    Searching...

    Is it possible to search the forum to see if a topic has already been started in a thread before you start one?
    Also, is it possible to search for comments on a topic/event and read about them specifically rather than scanning through all the threads in every bit of the forum to find it?
    If so, how do you do it??!
    Having limited internet access at the moment I'm finding it difficult to navigate as I don't have the oppertunity to sit and read everything (even though I would like to!).

    Thanks

    Re: Searching...

    On the forum home page, on the bar underneath the "Ceroc Scotland Forum" there is a button named "search". If you type in what you wish to search for it will search all the forums and list any posts that include the words you have typed.

    It's quick to do and then you can see if there has already been a similar thread.

    You can also do a similar search when in a particular forum.

    Hope this helps.

    ... you can also use the Advanced Search which gives you more options - for instance I often find it more useful to use the option to show search results as specific posts rather than whole threads.
