Worked for me....although it would be more useful if it actually showed some of the post content instead of the daily stats.

Looks like it got fixed. Thanks! It was sending us out to a google page without a cookie yesterday so I had to login again if I clicked on a search hit. Look what I found: search for this. Doh!

The search is still kinda weird bebi. I searched for 'soup' to pull up a funny link from yesterday with the word soup in the title of the post.

I get: soup search; with all the text from all the forum post link titles ?i think?), 'cause the text for the word soup in the link is in there, w/o a link tho.

eg.)

We're experimenting with different services. I'm going to moderate the posts regarding the searching until we get something locked down that we're happy with.

Also, Issues about the sites go into the 'Site Issues' forum. Post moved.
