Searching the forum with better results

Post by Pspider Support »

Here's a good tip for those of you who may have found PlasmaSpider's search function to be a little weak and unable to find what you need.

Google without a doubt has searching the web down to a science and you can use the power of Google's search technology to search ONLY PlasmaSpider.com with this tip. This is particularly great when you want to search PlasmaSpider for a specific dxf file. So here is the trick...

For example type the following into your address bar or Google search bar site:plasmaspider.com moose to search for moose related topics. Simply change the word moose to whatever you wish to search for. This will deliver you similar quality results shown in the image below for your specific search term and all results will be from this fantastic site.

Of course different computers and browsers may behave differently but give it a try and reply to this topic with any questions or issues and maybe we can improve on this tip for others who wish to try it. Search away and have fun :Yay

Now that is slick, that should shorten the list rather than showing all the additions to the original post with the Plasma Spider search. These sometimes are broken up by dates of the newer entries.

It's a great way to search, we should have posted this tip long ago for you folks who aren't aware that can be done.

We hope to improve upon our built in search engine at some point this year but the results from this search technique are awesome :Like
