Search Problem?

Hi

I wanted to search the "Trees" section for topics relating to Oak trees. So I entered 'oak' (and later 'Oak') but no matches were found, so I registered and created a new topic.

I then stumbled onto a second thread about oak tress, and thought I'd try the search again, but it still returns no results.

I can search the term "Pears" and lots of results are returned.

Is it because the search term is too short? or some other reason...?

Thanks
Simon

 

On many boards it's because as you say, the search word is too short.

No one on here will "shout at you" for a duplicated topic. They try not to annoy the customers.
The "powers that be" can probably amalgamate threads, it's not like a board that has a great number of contributors.

 

Hello Simon,if all else fails have a look at these links.
