I just checked to see if the forum search really isn't giving any useful results, and it seems it is really that bad.

Even after narrowing the keywords down and setting "Search for all terms", it still gives 18 hits, while most pages are only listed because they have the words "steel" and "desolator" at some different points in the text.

"Search in Forum" could have been set to SHP forum, or Media Hut to narrow it more down, but often such things are also found/uploaded in mod forums and other places.

I also placed apostrophes in hope the search would then try to find those 2 words together, but it made no difference.

Isn't there any way to specify that these 2 words have to be found as one keyword?
A tutorial for the forum search or some better search functionalities would really help.
Often i rather use google search (which is also crawling through the ppm forums) than the forum search.

In this case he even knew the exact name of the shp.
If he would have only known it was a recolored desolator, maybe that it was grey scaled or something, i think the forum search would have taken ages to find the right topic.

Yep, using Google seems more useful. TBH I think search worked fine last time I used it, but now it's indeed borked.

site:ppmforums.com whatever.
