New Search "Problem"

Thursday, April 5, 2007 by mauve | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues

Now I'm not here to rag on the new site cause I think it's great and looks fantstic, but one thing I have found is that if you search for something, say mail, then click downloads today, it doesn't sort the searched items but the entire database items.

I'm not sure if it's firefox, but it did the same thing on IE7 so i dunno..
Try it yourself. if you have the same problem then its probably the site.

Ok so is there anyway to fix this? and is it just my browser playing up.

Thanks

I have been having the same problem and it is really starting to bug me. I remember when you used to be able to do that with this site. I don't know what changed, but I don't like it. As far as I can tell there is no way to solve this problem. I can't seem to find any setting for searching. I dubt this will help though seeing as we seem to be the only two that care. And they probably never check their forums.
