Not as much of a suggested improvement, but more of a “hack” or “trick”
So, I find that the in-house search bar is kind of difficult to use effectively [at times, not all the time].
For instance, if you filter your search through “most relevant”, it most often pulls up posts and topics from circa '12 [whyyyy would those be most relevant?]
If you filter the search for “latest topic or post”, the spectrum of choices gets super broad and basically pulls up just about everything except what I’m looking for.
I usually have much better results putting my key search word or phrase + yoyoexpert forum into Google’s search bar. What I’m searching for is usually within the first two or three links.
Can you provide some examples of where you had difficulty? Type the letter “l” to scope your search to latest. Like this:
Origami l
Versus
Origami
Also, if you are trying to match topic titles (versus “finding a post someone made”), it is smart to be specific about that, if that’s what you’re looking for.
Origami in:title
or if you want anything in the first post or title
added text to the post that has the name of the yo-yo in it, that is “hey yo-yo doodz here’s a pic of my a-rt grail {pic}” versus “{pic}”
… then you are honestly, kinda super mega boned? Outside of sci-fi like “our supercomputers have the ability to magically analyze all images and tell that it is a picture of exactly this yo-yo” this is wayyyy beyond hard mode. Like way way wayyy beyond hard. So far beyond.
Now that being said, you can scope searches to posts with images in them.
breeze with:images
However, as I previously indicated, unless the word “breeze” appears in the image filename, the image description, or the post… you’re kinda at the mercy of the person who made the post. And it is entirely possible they used the word “breeze” and then posted some totally unrelated animated GIF instead, who knows…
