InsanelyMac. Version 1.0.1.

Now I don't want to give too much away about the idea but all I can say is it involves Google

Search the forums

I think Mebster meant to say it doesn't involve Google.

I can assure you, we are most definitely not using Google Custom Search.

Shame, unless of course you can come up with something better - all I know is I've used google to search the forums for pretty much as long as I've been a member and it works well.

Got to say, the category updates/re-organisation was a good idea - it's much easier to see what goes where now (at least in my opinion).

When the website was down, wouldn't it be good if you could throw that up? Without the store bit, of course.

Well,I liked the title "The Magnificent Seven".But I guess it was hit by the machine gun...

This new organization will take some getting used to, but overall its better and more logical. The OSX86 section as a whole is a lot cleaner now.

I like the magnificent seven too, but the new OSx86 is just the best.

should have been done long ago

Think Mark

Nicely re-done!

Yep, search is next on the list. We have came up with a fantastic idea to help improve search results and their relevance when trying to find information on the forum. I will talk about this in a week or two. We just need time to develop the new system and test it.

the search has been borked ever since conception back in july of '05.

this should have been addressed many many months ago if not years, if you get people who cant find what they are looking for they will post all willy nilly like in any thread they deem relevent.

as for the forum rearangement, whats the point? fix the search and that will resolve alot of the missplaced post and other random bullcr@p.

thats my but hey no1 ever listens to me.

-D-

Diabolik, I try to listen to as many people as possible. Search is our top priority now - it's (hopefully) the next thing to be fixed.

I dont see any difference besides a faster browsing times around the site.

the best way to search is to use google anyway, and just end with "site:insanelymac.com".

I think that thefinalprophecy is right:Google is our friend.But now I believe that we deserve the "Search option".Go for it Sabr...

Problem is we can't rely on Google for our search, Since it does not index every single thing at once. It takes it's time. Also we are testing a new method of Searching and seeing how that is turning out. Its still in development but it is progressing .

Hope I helped and all I can say is that it will be implemented soon.

Why can't there ever be any hints around here? Such secrecy...

You'd be surprised on how fast Google indexes this site...

I've had a few posts of mine come up within an hour of me posting... but I agree, it's not quick for all posts.

To be honest, I use a lot of google, with inurl:insanelymac.com rather than the build-in search...

Could be possible to add the arrows on the messenger to jump from one message to another?.Sometimes is very annoying click the inbox or sent items to do that...

Yeah, that's probably possible with some extra code (Suhail is the one who could say for sure). Once we've figured out the search we can look into it for you.

Thank you...I am going to leave Suhail alone for a while...

I think you should do something about the Search. It's really irritating.

Why don't you use Google site search ? It's much better. Will also save you bandwidth.

Oops didn't read all the posts, that's what you were talking about...
