Search facility

Thanks for getting back to us. When you say it's blank, do you see the usual headers / menu etc and a strap line / headline that says "Search Gransnet" or do you mean you just get a completely blank which page as if you weren't on any website?

Hi keepingquiet, yes it was started a while ago but sprung back to life in late November because a couple of people were still having problems.

Also, just to note, if the search box at the top of the page (which searches forum messages as well as articles etc) doesn't work you can search forum messages only by going to www.gransnet.com/forums?showsearch=arch

Hi Calendargirl, Can you try again and let me know if you see any sort of error message now? We made an update to the page so that it will report if it encounters either of a couple of conditions that may stop it working.

Hi, Calendargirl, if you type something in the box and hit the enter key, what comes up on the page that displays? Is there any kind of error message?

Hi, If you are on a phone, the search page that comes up when you click the search button in the bottom bar (first photo) is unfortunately broken. But the search box that comes up when you click the "hamburger menu" at the top of the page should work.

If you're on a computer the search box at the top of each page in the GN masthead should work.

We are hoping to get the broken search (bottom bar search) back over the next week or so.

Hi @boheminan - just wondered if the search function is working for you by now? If not, please can you let us know which device and browser you're using so we can take a closer look.

Hi all, the search box at the top of the screen should work again now. Apologies for the delay to this.
