Searching the forums using Google:

This old gray mare ain't what she used to be. Her name is the forums search function. There's got to be a better way. Well, there is! Here's how.


1.)
Navigate to Google Advanced Search.

2.) In the Site or Domain field, type the following:https://7daystodie.com/forums

3.) Now enter your search terms into the relevant fields under Find pages with fields. The more specific you are, the more accurate your results will be. Try to use less generalized keywords to increase accuracy as well.

• Note: That will search the entire forums, if you wish to only search a specific section of the forums, you would replace the code above with the url from that subforum. For example, to search only the Mods subforum, instead of the above url you would add: https://7daystodie.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?61-Mods

Search terms:

I asked TSBX to post this as I was unaware how it worked and thought others might benefit from the reference as well. Locking this thread and sticking it on top.

 
OP is from before the new forum software, I think. The new built-in search tool is pretty capable...
