The forum was recently hacked and everything had to be re-setup. Theymos hasn't gotten around to building the search index I guess.

Here's an alternative. Go to Google.com and do this search: <search term (without the <> stuff)> site:bitcointalk.org

theres your answer; hopefully everything gwts up and running soon, meanwhile you could search google for what you need and add "bitcointalk" in the search and you might get the results you want.

I have also find this. Search feature is really helpful to the members. I am currently using google to search with combined keyword bitcointalk.

Well you need to be patient until theymos could fix the exploit and then hopefully he could turn on the search function again

i have never needed the "site:bitcointalk.org" addition to my searches.
since bitcointalk is the most popular forum on bitcoin, so far everything bitcoin related that i searched, there was a bitcointalk.org thread in the first results page.
