bubinga5 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Am i missing something. Im going to be selling an East J Retro Deluxe preamp. So i want to get an idea of the current price values etc. So... I go to the correct forum and put in the search magnifying glass and type in East J Retro Deluxe. Then it brings up everything from the whole of basschat. Why is this.? Am i doing something wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Oh hold on I need to flip the search back to ‘elastic’ after we had an issue last week. I’ll do that later which will make it better. But when you search you must select a specific forum if you want to do it like that, searching from a forum searches the whole site unless you select it. So click ‘topics’ (I’m trying to rename this ‘forums’) first 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lurksalot Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 In the search the content type can be chosen as ‘topics’ you will then get the option of which forum to look in , choose FS and away you go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 So you can further filter the results by selecting things like ‘contains all words in the title’ which gives you this in the other items forum: https://www.basschat.co.uk/search/?q="East J Retro Deluxe"&type=forums_topic&nodes=21&updated_after=any&sortby=newest&search_and_or=or&search_in=titles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was me 🤣. The ‘Elasticsearch’ is way better but it was causing an issue with the new software so it crashed a few times. I’m pretty sure our server guy fixed it but let me double check before I flip the switch back on! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted October 2, 2019 Author Share Posted October 2, 2019 Did i say perfect. Still a little wonky. No big deal ill just put it up for £300 and then haggle for a few months.😆 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 You get a different search box when the screen is wide enough. E.g. on my iPad in portrait mode, searching in a specific forum is impossible. But if I rotate to landscape (or just use my laptop!), I get a totally different search box with a ‘this forum’ option underneath. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d never clocked this as I browse in portrait mode 99% of the time on my iPad! Thanks for the heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See screen grab above for searching in mobile view - it’s possible but not by a drop down you get in full site view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Ah I see, I have to change the content type to ‘topics’ in order to get that drop down! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skankdelvar Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Just now, ped said: That was taken before I went class D I thought it was taken before you screamed 'It's alive!' then went crazy f*cking apesh*t with a bunsen burner and a jerrycan of paraffin. The only way to move forward is to face up to the choices you've made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete.young Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Or, go to google and type in "site:basschat.co.uk/topic/<whatever the misc forum is called> East Retro" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
