If I use the forum's search feature and enter the terms:

admin password restore

in either the subject or the body with 2 years of search and check the top option I get zero results.

However, if I search using google and the terms:

admin password restore site:dotnetnuke.com

it finds me the forums that I'm looking for.

Am I using the forum search function incorrectly?

Because the module is made to support SQL Server 2k and the storage type for forums is ntext, our search options are limited. You cannot use things like % LIKE % for example, which impacts results.

Do you suggest that we use Google's site:dotnetnuke.com syntax for searching the forums instead of the Forum's search feature?

I am not saying that at all. I am saying that this module and google just operate differently and the results will vary. I have to spend some time investigating the best way to get better search results before I could post better information about it though.

Thanks for the clarification. I know that you are working hard on this project and that the time that you can allocate to it is limited and we all really appreciate what you're doing. Thanks again.
