    Searching

    Advice appreciated:

    When I want to search for something specific, the search results produce with threads containing many pages. Is there a way of searching to provide links to specific posts, rather than entire threads?

    Easier if you know who posted, then you can add the members name which will scale back the amount of threads.

    Go to google.com, punch in what you want to search and throw site:www.kiwibiker.co.nz after it.

    Example:

    ' Strawberry cupcake recipe site:www.kiwibiker.co.nz '

    You can search within an individual thread at the top of the first post. But it's still far from ideal when you've got pages of results of threads to search through.

    You can always just do the search and then search the thread individual as well but this may be easier.

    Use the advanced option.
    below the search

    click on this attachment a few times to get the pic really large.

    It also pays to have a Word Doc open and you can cut and paste into it if you want to multi quote etc.

    I guess it always helps to scroll to the bottom of the page before clicking the search button

    Thanks for the great suggestions
