Is the search tool down?
I can't seem to get search to return any results no matter what search terms I use - I have tried quick search via the navigation bar and the advanced search window to no avail.
Anyone else having this problem?

My guess is that they have the database tied up, makeing some changes. That is usually what is happening when the Search is not working.

I did not try yesterday, but at 6:05 AM CDT today the search is returning the vB message "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms. "
I did a search in the electrical forum for window and then tried an advance search for "window", 3 times got the same results.
The search returned this message rather quick ( i.e. as if a search was not even tried ).
Bit of additional info
The My Recent Topics -> Last week search ( in the black menu bar ) seems to work correctly, but the profile -> Statistics -> Find all posts by SSCULLY gave the same results as searching for a word, Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.

The above quote from yesterday (12:46 pm) shows as your last post when searching your posts.
I did log off and clear my cookies...
I just looked for ' minischool ' and search last found it on June 28th.
Ok - all is good now.

Search broken this AM, different message.
FireFox is reporting :
This is with a search in forum, search on site ( did the term window again ) or from the My Recent Topics or view all posts by a member ( via the pull down menu from the screen name in a post or via the public profile ) gives the same results.
