There appears to be no way to perform a search. This is bad.

Agreed, but you can use the "site:" directive in google as a workaround; to search for aesthetics for example use:

"aesthetics site:http://forums.philosophyforums.com/" in the google search page.

Indeed but the "search all" option looks bugged to me.

Thanks, Yahadreas. There should be a link to it like there was before.

Will the problems that the board is experiencing be corrected? What caused them?

The greatest of all evil, "MAN!"

Also I use option, then current threads, then I know which threads I have been participating in. No need to search unless you want to go back in time to research a topic.

Something went wrong with an update to the forum script. Everything is being fixed in pieces.

And if anyone hasn't noticed yet, the search function has returned as a tab near the top of every PF page. nod
