Title: Cannot use the search bar

The search bar on this forum has never worked for me or am doing something wrong?

What error do you get when you try to search? Is there anything you think could be blocking it like an add-on in your browser?
Also, go to the "search" tab and see if that one works (its a different engine).

I barely use it, but when I do, it works. Note that it only searches subsections of the forum: when I search "loycev" above this page, I get nothing, but when I search from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php, I get 5 pages with results.

Alternative: search on Google with the site name: "loycev site:bitcointalk.org".

Not sure the 5 board limit still exists now? I can search the entire forum (but that could be based on something else - ip ranges or something).
