A better search engine for FF
October 31, 2011
Forex Factory has a new search engine! It's smarter, easier to use, and more tightly integrated with Forex Factory's products. Check it out: http://www.forexfactory.com/search.php
You can utilize four different search types to locate information. For everyday use, the 'Google Powered' search harnesses Google's algorithm to find relevant content throughout Forex Factory. For Forum-specific searches, the custom-built 'Forum Posts' search is a powerful tool when used with the 'Advanced Options.' There's also a News-specific search, and a 'Posts by Member' search that makes it easy to sort through posts a member has made.
The 'Posts by Member' search pulls together member-specific content from around the site, and it ushers in new nomenclature. The word 'post' now encompasses four items: forum threads started, forum thread replies, news stories submitted, and news story comments. This puts all of a member's contributions into a single, easily-browsed list. Of course you can still search specific post types by clicking on the 'Post Type' links or setting the advanced options.
We hope this new search engine helps you find what you're looking for! If you run into any bugs, or have feedback, please let us know.
