How come pages don't always appear when using the search. (e.g.Try searching for 'widget' or widgets'.) It's very annoying, and one is forever having to use google to search within wetpaintcentral. Is this just me, or does anyone else have this problem? 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

I'll bring this up with the development team. We will continue to work to refine and improve the search functionality. Thanks for the feedback. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

This seems to be a problem still. If I recall it might have been something to do with iot takes a time for the Search function to pick up new pages added ? Is that the case ? Is there any expecttion that this "dealy" will ever be eliminated ? Do you find this valuable?

As the Wetpaint network has grown some new problems with the indexing process have cropped up. Some sites are unaffected, but a few may see significant delays in having new content indexed for the search results. We are currently looking for a solution. Do you find this valuable?

Thanks. GRowing pains happen!
Not such a big deal if you are aware of it. But for new site creators I can see from other entries that it causes some concern. Do you find this valuable?

WoW! Even three years ago, I do not see the search feature as a big issue, I believe Wetpaint should continue to look into the new features, although some people like to have this. I guess that it is best for Wetpaint to fix it, they have recently had problems with their own search function, they are continuing to work on this! 0  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?
