It's been quite a while since oldunreal had an overhaul, but we are moving to another server which require some updates and changes. The biggest change is the migration of our old reliable YaBB forum to phpBB. This system expects you to login with your username and old password known from YaBB.
If you experience any problems there is also the usual "password forgotten" function. Don't forget to clear your browser cache!

Forum upgrade broke the search?

Post by fakeaccount »

it seems that all posts made before the upgrade are not indexed, thus search doesn't find them.

Maybe it's just some of the older posts that aren't showing up? I've seen posts dating back to 2005 when searching for joystick support yesterday.

The quicksearch to the upper right only searches in a limited time, I think 2 weeks or so. If you need more than that, use the "Search" button to the left, it'll take you to advanced search.
