I've yet to fathom out how the search facility in Pod Arena works. Usually I find it's quicker to type key words into Google and then pick out the Podiatry arena threads from that list.
For instance today I typed key words 'Virtual Receptionist'. One might assume that any thread entitled Virtual receptionist might be at the top of the list but no, it's at the bottom of the first page.
What or how, is it that the search function actually searches?

Thought it was just me. Rarely use the search facility - even keywords like "medial tibia stress syndrome" or "hypocure" throw up bizarre results - posts or threads. Is there a secret password?

Anyway, wot no calendar this year, Mark? Only been back at work two days and patients are already asking questions regarding "that lovely calendar you had last year"....:rolleyes: Empty space on my wall, should I fill it with the "taxifast calendar" I received? As the father in-law no-longer gets the Pirelli Calendar: he retired too many years ago from them (I' do have a collection of them spanning back many, many years under my bed that he gave to me (what else do you do with them?)) I was thinking: The Sun: Page 3 stunnazzz calendar 2011 might be the way to go, but I'm not sure.... -
The search functions of the bulletin software is very limited. It will search for all words typed into the search box and, unlike google, does not rank them in any sort of order. It will find all mentions of the word, regardless of context.
Use the search function in the Apture toolbar that appears at the top of the page when you scroll down ...it pretty good at ranking the search results and giving results with the word in context.
Or use the google site: operator. To use the type the following into google search box:
Word1 word2 word3 site:www.podiatry-arena.com
That instructs google to search for those words only at podiatry arena an the sophisticated ranking algorithm at google will place them in some sort of meaningful order. -
Is it possible to replace the current 'search' facility with the Google one you indicate as a one click search feature on the top tool bar on Pod' A'?
I don't know if this is a possibility, just thought I would be cheeky & ask anyway.

Excellent tip!! I tried it and it works great. Much, much better than the "search" bar at the top of the Podiatry Arena page that only helps me on rare occasion.
May I suggest, Craig, that you put this hint in the search button section of Podiatry Arena so that when we need to use it again, we can remember the proper format for Google.
Thanks! -

Glad they arrived - Twirls - will reserve a copy gladly but you might have to travel to collect! Playing a gig last saturday of January quite close to you I believe - one or two Arena faithfuls already in attendance - will send you details and hope to see you there. Can you sing?
