Here is the link to a thread I was searching for by its exact title via the search function of the forum software. Even when I had selected search thread title and the entire theta psi sub forum it kept telling me it didn't exist. Took a bit of searching through every post I've made.

I don't know if there is anything that can be done to improve the search function or if this just has something to do with the threads that were incorporated in from the old sigmapiusi site not being part of the search base for some reason.

Heck even searcing for the term "red bull" as that was a sponsor idea we had didn't even kick it back.

I rebuilt the search index. Try it now.

Naham, thanks for finding all these errors/problems. If I don't know they are there, I can't fix them. So, Thanks!

If I had to guess it is related to the import of the database. It seems for both the Gamma Xi and Theta Psi sites, the imported data is not search-able.

Awsome, it works perfect now.

Robbie I would make this part of a check list to update the searchable database everytime a new chapter of sigma pi joins this forum database. I'm glad to be able to help find the errors.
