Troubleshooting File Search Issues: Tips and Solutions

[gailz2]

Am I the only one who has a problem searching through the files? I just commented on a thread about Mexican Cheese Crisps, yet when I put that into files, nothing comes up. This seems to be the case with me on anything I look up--am i doing something wrong? Avocado Peeler shows nothing as well.

When you search files, it isn't searching threads and comments - the Files section is only for documents that have been downloaded to this site.

You have to use the Search tab to find threads and posts.

Well that is certainly much more productive, don't know why I didn't think of using that. Thanks, Becky!

Plus, when you're searching files, you're only searching the title of the document, not the words in it.

The search function on the site isn't the best, but you can use Google instead. Just type whatever search terms you want followed by "site:chefsuccess.com"
