Search - the new forum
Search on this new forum keeps failing. Tried several times with different song titles. Quite frustrating. :swear: An unhappy camper, yours truly.

Re: Search - the new forum
A lot of the times search either brings up nothing or says this :
You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.
For example, I tried to find "oruti maganay pirandu" with different spellings, then dropping words, then tried "pasuram" "Andal" and was comepletely unsuccessful each time.
I can't find any old stuff. PLEASE make the search feature more user friendly - the old forum was SO much better!

Shyama priya,
The spelling matters. If you search for "oruthi maganai" rather than "oruti maganay", you will have used a search term closer to how most people write, and therefore get results.
Pasuram gives me 170 results and Andal gives about 231.
