Searching the Forum

Post by Andy Tibbott »

When ever I try to search the forum I get this message "Sorry but you cannot use search at this time. Please try again in 37 seconds." If I try to access the New Posts from the quick links drop down I get the same message again. To get round this I have to select the Board Index which seems to re-fresh the page and that allows me to select New Posts.

I tried searching the forum on this but search doesn't work :scratch:

To me it appears to be on a timer. Wait about 40 seconds after one coming up and then you can do the other. If you fairly quickly try to go from one to the other a timer is kicking in every time. It works that way though.

It's called search flood interval. I think it was added to the forums by the devs to stop bots abusing it and tieing up resources. I've lowered the timer though for registered users

I'm getting the same Andy.

I think Ben and Crofty are tweaking something (or running around like a scene in Dad's Army - with Ben saying "Don't panic!!" and Crofty saying "we're doomed!!!". :laughs:

I can now see 'new posts' but the 'boad index' doesn't work yet.
