    Beta Test: New Search Functionality

    If you have a few minutes to spare can you please test a new search feature we're looking at let me know what you think? It's not a free thing so I want to make sure it's worth spending a couple bucks a month on before moving forward with it. If implemented, it would replace the default search on the site but the advanced search would still remain the same as now.

    For testing you can access the search at the URL below, let me know what you think.

    It's vastly better than the stock search engine. Even better than Google: "copytechnet ..."

    It gets my vote. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

          Yes I would say this is worth the extra cost, a few searches I did came back with accurate results.

                I haven't really had much success with the usual search bar (maybe it's me), but this search work really well.

                    Definitely a good search engine. A real time saver.

                          The beta test is over and it's good news, the sites main search has been switched over to the new search engine.

                          Thank you for your feedback!
