Q:

I thought perhaps the search function was going to get a refurbishing as part of the latest reorganisation. Any news on if or when it will be fixed?

(was not my intention to make another thread on this issue, but yeah… nothing popped up when I searched for it ^^)

Let the Kings and Queens of other lands and lesser creatures
witness our wonders and cry out in astonishment and humble themselves.
Beware our mighty works.

A:

The search function will not be viable until the advent of new Forum software. You can, however, use Google to search the forums.

Here’s one link to a Dev post (of several) addressing the issue: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/players/Forum-s-search-feature-doesn-t-work-A-tip/first#post4612877

Good luck.

I tried the Google search method yesterday and all pages that came up, gave me a message like “page cannot be found”… (was looking for support pages)

If you replace the /xxx after the first /support in the URL with /support (i.e. /support/support), you should be able to access all those threads/posts from the Google search.

Good luck.
