No Site/Forum Search

I couldn’t help but notice there appears to be a lack of search functionality for the site or forums. And if there is, it’s not obvious. So, what’s happening here?

Oh, and you might want to create a “Website” option for the Create a Post, Catagory menu.

        <blockquote><a href="#259065"><em>In reply to Simard57:</em></a></blockquote><p>Same way, forum posts are simply front page posts that are not on the front page…they show up in search.</p>
