Hi, I can't seem to find the search function? Search questions & posts, I was able to find it in the previous version of the site but on this new one I cannot seem to figure out where it is.

Hey Alex,

You could do that by pressing CTRL+K or if you are on a Mac COMMAND+K. This will open the search box.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Best,

Bobby

Hmph. Interesting, I haven't seen this/that before. I'm currently on a Windows/Surface device and it opens but wont actually search.

Is there no search pages/urls? Generally, Search is embedded in either the header and/or as part of "global navigation".

Hi there David,

This is just a UX decision, the search works in the same way as normal, just you open it with CTRL+K or if you are on a Mac COMMAND+K. We might add a reference to that in the menu in the future!

Hey!

Quick update here, this is now available in the nav menu:

To use the search:

  • Click the 🔎 Search button
  • Then type Questions or Post depending on the type of content that you want to search for
  • Press enter
  • Then search for the question or post title as per your needs!

Let me know if you have any questions!
