Forum search broken?

Not sure if this is the correct place to place this thread..

I've tried numerous times to use the search function on the forums, but no matter what terms, dates, etc parameters I use (or lack thereof) I get "no results".

Has anyone else managed to get the Search Function to work? How?
Anyone report this as a bug before?
Where'd my blinky-blinky path go?

    It works but it has always worked poorly even before the forum update broke half the forum content.

    Words which are too short or are too common are omitted from search results so if you search "What is D&D?" it will return 0 results instead of 20K results. Just tested it with the first large word that came to mind, "reverence" and got a large list of responses.

    It really makes searching for content hard but it does work. It is just is not very intuitive at all. You would almost be better off using a Google Search than the built in feature.

    Check all the boxes in "Search Types:" and see if that helps any.
