Frustrated With Search Function
After dropping serious $ on yet another magazine, I see it has already been posted here.
This is the third time this has happened in the past 2 weeks, and seems whenever I do a search, the results are always misleading. If the results are to include all keywords, why do 'teenage dream girls' and 'teenage dreamgirls' result in 2 different search results? (Should the fact that there is a space in one really have that much of an effect?) |

Quotation marks (as you might use in google) don't work. Also, the default logic is OR so you would have found threads with teenage, threads with dream and threads with both, but not threads with dreamgirls. It switches to AND if you don't return any thread results and subsequently switch to searching posts. Alternatively, send one of us a PM - we don't mind investing time for contributing members.

nope, it's AND. a while ago i thought the same, but it's wrong.
if you want to gain "teenage" or "dream", you need to add OR between both searchwords. using just "teenage dream" by default quick- and advance search, the engine searchs in entire posts (or only titles if you've used this filter in advance search - this narrows the results a lot, but often doesn't give what you're looking for and you might think it's not available) for threads (or posts, if you've made the setting to receive posts as result) having both searchwords included. the asterisk is indeed helpful, but you should know how to use it: dream* finds Dream and words starting with Dream *dream finds Dream and words ending with dream knowing this, the search term "dream* *girls" finds all "Dream Girls" as well as all "Dreamgirls". while "*dream girls*" will give you "WhateverDream Girlsthread" or "American Dream Girls Nation" or "Dream Girls" alone.

so, the most suitable search term for your original request should have been Code:
teenage dream* *girls

I sit corrected regarding the default AND and not OR.
However, whilst what hos says might be technically correct, no-one is going to bother going through that much hassle so, in response to the original question, if you have material to post just send us a PM if you are unsure whether a mag thread exists. Regards 40+

Is there a way to have the default set to 'search titles only' in the advanced search?

For example: a search for 'climax' with the search set to titles, returns set to threads and forum set to Classic Magazine Scans (top level), returns this post: http://vintage-erotica-forum.com/sho...51&postcount=1 which doesn't contain the word 'climax' anywhere. My guess is the title was changed at some point, or the post was originally in another thread. I'm afraid patience is the only solution. Regards 40+
