HUBB Search Function?

Is there a thread search function for the HUBB, and if so, where do I find it?

Thanks!!!

Thanks! But, I thought that there was a HUBB specific search function, i.e., one that only searched threads (and maybe specific forums) rather than the while HU site.

At the top of this thread there is a blue bar which reads (left to right): link back; thread tools; search this thread; rate thread; display modes. Do what comes naturally.

Is that what you're looking for?

If you click "search this thread" you'll see a little blue link below the search box which says "advanced search." That'll search the HUBB forums, not the whole site. It's not exactly intuitive, and in fact I might have it wrong. Personally I never bother--I just use the site search box that Mark Manley points to, or I Google.

Hope that's helpful.

Mark

Thanks. That’s close, but not exactly it. I happened to be chatting with Grant, and he provided me with the following link: Horizons Unlimited - The HUBB - Search Forums ONLY searches the HUBB, and not well. <strong> <em> <a href="/search">Use Site Search</a></em></strong> to search everywhere.

That takes you for a generalized Search function that spans all threads. He, as you and Mark have pointed out, advises using the site search function instead. However, I was interested specifically in finding active threads related to Urals, so the link he provided does the trick.

Hope this helps others as old fashioned as I am!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
