Forum search glitch with refining the timespan


Recommended Posts

Say I go into The Media Room and specify in the search drop-down that I want to search this forum. By default, I get results from any date and the URL looks like so:

https://www.neowin.net/forum/search/?q=blah&type=forums_topic&nodes=52

Now say that I want to narrow it down to results from threads last updated in the past 6 months. I click Past six months and then Update Results. The resulting URL looks like so:

https://www.neowin.net/forum/search/?type=forums_topic&q=blah&updated_after=six_months

The problem is that refining the search's timespan seems to have glitched the query and the search is executed against all forums instead of just node 52 (The Media Room). Manually adding "&nodes=52" to the end of the "wrong" URL does work around this glitch, but we all know this is a bug.

This is still a problem, so will the upgrade fix the issue?

Further, I am trying to search the Media Room section for a specific string of text in threads' titles, but it seems impossible. Currently, it searches the body of a post as well, even though that is completely undesired.
