Anyone have any thoughts or input as to why I cannot perform a search of the forums? Whatever I type in it immediately returns a blank screen. Never had a problem before??

Thanks

Been having the same issue for about two weeks now.

Ever since I joined havent had any luck using the site's search funtion using 2 word searches.

Solution was someone here said to use Google but add "site:www.m4carbine.net" after your search terms.

I have found this to be excellent.

Using firefox 3.0.11 and trying to search for good places to buy 223/556 ammo online. Once I click submit, it loads a completely blank white page.

Mine does that sometimes, but sometimes it works correctly.

This is generally the best way to do it. The search function in VB SW has always been "ok" at best.

I love it when it says you can't search more frequently than every 30 seconds - then tells you to try again in 62 seconds.

gotta love them puters:)

I have the same problem. There must be a way to fix this...it works on other vBulletin boards.

What really gets me is I know the exact title of the thread, type it in and still can't find it. I just use google.

I have resorted to just using google and I have found it works best... YMMV

Use Advanced Google and restrict the domain to m4carbine.net.

that still sucks if you want to search a certain sub-forum.

If I try to do a full forum search off the main page then all I get for results is a white screen.

The search function in the individual forums seems to work fine though.

EDIT - I had to go and say it. Now the search function in the forums is giving me a blank screen now too.
