Search is still not as useful as it used to be.
In the old forum, I could type "jj" in the search function and it would return results. At the bottom of the page, I could refine or use the advanced search, but results were returned from a simple search.
The new forum returns no results for "jj", so I then have to use the advanced search function.

This means they are using the new, more advanced search functions. That is good as they are much faster. Unfortunately it means they don't have their MySQL server configured to index words less than 4 characters. So, you will not be able to search for any terms 3 characters or less. This is a configuration issue on the server and can be fixed however. All my servers are set to 2 characters or more for indexing.
