Here's the situation: I'm off to create a thread, and I wanted to know if there was another thread previously created. For this, I went to the search box. I typed in the query I requested and pressed search. There were no results, even though I typed in a commonly used world such as "metal". To retest this, I typed in the even simpler query of "link", and this is what came up:



There was nothing, no results to be found. Thinking that someone might have an answer to this, I created this thread. Have any of you encountered this same problem, and if so, could the admins be so kind as to fix it? Thank you, I'll be here all night.

Hey, I got the same problem, no filters, I just typed "metal" and didn't found anything

@staff ppl: try using my account, my mail and passwords has to be stored in the DB isn't it? if its ciphered, hashed or whatever I gladly would provide you to test it.

Could you please PM me with your password, I'll check. Though I'm 99% sure it's not the user account problem.

Yep, your'e right, about that, Its a browser/PC problem.
I format my PC every 5 months, and yesterday I tried to search something and did actually worked.

====PEOPLE: A possible sollution====
Format your PC just kidding
Nope, seriusly, try clearing your cookies, maybe something you typed was not erased due to a browser crash or something, clearing the cookies must work, cause when you format your pc, you erase everything, including cookies , and basically that's what I did.

it seems to be the cookies, try clearing your cookies, just delete the metalstorm.ee entry on Tools>Preferences>Advanced>Cookies>Manage Cookies

A scan wouldn't hurt anything either along with Selken's advice.

alright, i cleared the cookies, i even reinstalled my firefox (twice!), did a virus/bug scan whatsoever, and still, the searchbox for the forum still doesn't work, so it must be a bug or a problem on metalstorm, i can't figure it out.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned or tried this but when I log off my user name & then try to do a search it seems to work. Where as if I would be logged in I would get no results, although it would be nice not to have to log out every time I need to search for something.

OK, I think I finally located and fixed the problem. The search was only failing for users who had someone in their ignore list. Please check if it's working now.

Why would you be banned for having someone in your ignore list? After all, Ivan implemented that option himself.

cause ive ignored a staff, and if i wanted to say that the problem is cause of that (cause of igonre) no one would believe it, so i had to say that ive ignored "X - Staff" then maybe i wouldnt ban, but staff would hate me ! cause of blame thing!
