Having problems using search function on FM forum; no results ever found

I've done searches on topics that I know exist, but I never get any results.  I never used to have this problem.  Did something change?

cvgs,

Can you give an example of a search term you tried?

cvgs,

Confirmed. "the" might be a stopword, but if you search for "TOC" all over the forums you have matches in several areas, including FrameMaker forums. But is you restrict the search to any of the FrameMaker forums there is no result.

Hopefully this is read by some admin...

Thanks, Michael, for double-checking my thinking. I was so used to having it work, that I doubted myself.

fwiw, the forum search functionality (within forums as well as over all the forums) seems to be having issues over the last several weeks. I haven't had any search results for several weeks, tried 3x different browsers.

There's a discussion about it in the Forum Comments section:

"Is the forum search broken"
