The New Nairaland Search Engine Doesnt Help by tushbobo(m): 11:08pm On Mar 28, 2012 |
I dont know if im the only one affected by this.i was used to opening past topics i could nt locate via nairaland search but not anymore. for instance if u search for "how to import a car" it gives u just a few posts and keeps on highlighting common words such as "to" and "a". unlike what obtained before where u ll just see numerous topics with those words and locate the one you need. at the end there s no link to what u r searching for. |

That looks like Google custom search. So try to do that from your regular Google search engine. |

The Nairaland custom search engine has been replaced with Google Custom Search. I hope you like it. |

The old search engine is still available at the bottom of every page, for those who prefer it. 1 Like |

I hate the new search engine with a passion. It doesn't even order the search in ascending order. Seun, please revert to the old one. |
Re: The New Nairaland Search Engine Doesnt Help by Seun(m): 12:06pm On Mar 29, 2012 |
Ok, now I'm confused. I suppose I should have posted a poll. |

Depends on which one Afam is referring to. |
Re: The New Nairaland Search Engine Doesnt Help by Seun(m): 12:16pm On Mar 29, 2012 |
I think he's referring to Google SiteSearch since Google doesn't sort in ascending order. |

ok then. afam4eva: I hate the new search engine with a passion. It doesn't even order the search in ascending order. Seun, please revert to the old one. The old one is available at the bottom as Seun said. 1 Like |

Dis Guy: 100likes: the new search has no head or tail! it just search for the individual wordsIt's not a replacement for Google Search. It's a complement. It's designed for searching for posts sorted by date. |

Please do something about this. Both are not effective. The one you called "the old search engine" only highlights words intead of topics. The old one (old Nairaland) was really okay. A search for "bus for sale" now displays street bus stops in property section. Revert please! |
