The search page on this board is a bit lacking as is all the bulletin boards running Vbulletin. I suspect there is specific search codes. Anyone know what they are?

Such as if you want to search for an exact phrase like "Mig Master" how would you put that in the search text box and end up with ONLY results with that exact phrase. (yes there are a few threads in here with that exact phrase) Do you use AND OR codes? Do you use +- codes. I tried quotes but that did not work.

Thanx in advance.

I have found that google is sometimes the best way to search sites. If you have problems with the Vbulletin search try google.

Ive tested this google advanced search for a few things I actually knew right where they were. It failed horribly. Least when looking for stuff recently put on a board. Thats the only thing I tested with.
