Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Admin, I have

Admin, I have a suggestion. Maybe a search engine box here? That way we can search threads if they are hidden! Like if the thread was about HP, then maybe we could type in Harry Potter and bam! All threads that relate to Harry Potter pop up. It's just an idea. :)

 

It's already on our Wish List, but I'm not sure we'll be able to do it. There is a way to search via google, I think, if you include chatterbox or our Web address in the search. Maybe one of the other Chatterboxers will explain that to you better than I can.

That would be awsome.

Pie. Boom. ZNZ and Ima's taking-over-the-world-and-stopping-that-from-happening threads, The Pie Wars, etcetc.

Clan. Boom. A million BaB Warriors RPs.

Maybe it could be sorted, stuff like "search on fourum.." All, This Month, Chirp at Cricket, etc. and "Search by..." Phrase/word in thread, Thread name, etc...

 

Vick says anfz.

Hey Coyotegirl76! :) I would have responded to this sooner, but I didn't see it.... :) I totally love the idea of a search engine too-it would be so easy to find threads! Lots of other buggies have actually asked the Admins about adding one, but they're not able to at the moment. For now, you can try searching them on Google, but I'm still a tad confused about that. I have searched Kimberly B Chatterbox/Cricket Chatterbox before, and different things have popped up. Sometimes when I search my name and Chatterbox, it comes up with a thread I made titled "Kimberly B" that I had made telling everybuggy about myself (lots of people made threads about themselves a year or so ago. :)). That one comes up because the title of the thread is my name. Ohter times though, I enter Kimberly B Chatterbox, and it just comes up with links to CaC, DtE, etc. because it finds threads I've posted on. So it doesn't always come up with spefic threads, it could just come up with the page the thread(s) you've made/posted on are in. Yes, it's confusing, I know. :p It's not too easy, but you can find quite a few old threads! Hmmm, let me try something.....OK, when I enter Coyotegirl76 Chatterbox, it comes up with this thread, because your name is in the title: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/inkwell/node/65509?page=1  If I enter your name with Cricket Chatterbox, it comes up with the same thread. If I enter R~D~ Chatterbox, it comes up with this thread: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/51380 I don't know why it doesn't just bring up every thread a buggie has made/posted on. I kind of thought it would just come up with threads we've made, not that we just made one or two comments on! :[ When I looked up Harry Potter Cricket Chatterbox, it came up with this: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/blababoutbooks/node/48454 Weird, huh? Maybe if you remember the exact title for a thread you could look it up that way, but people aren't very likely to remember that. :) Most of the time, the first few search results are links to CB, but I don't know if other pages could have link too. I don't usually go to the next page when I search something. :)

Whoa, this is so long! :o Sorry Admins, I guess I got a little carried away.... ;) Hope this helps Coyotegirl! :)
