Search on archived forums

[mexking]

Searching for old threads on the archived forum comes up with no result on every search

When going to Workbench forum in 2007-2012 archived no problems, when going to workbench 2012-2022 archived I get 404 failure

I have also noticed this, but in my experience Google is also great for finding threads on the archived forums, so that be an option until a fix is done

I assume the search function used to work prior to the site transfer?
There should have been no changes of the archived sites but I will look into this.

Search on the old forums worked like a charm

[Madskp]

I can also confirm that it worked before the transfer

Hi, just want to ask about the status? I would really appreciate a working search in the archived forums, thanks.

Sorry but I don’t know the answer, hence will let Multicare respond.

However, in the meantime, you can use your normal search engine (eg Google) and type in the search bar as follows:

For earliest forum: ‘Beosound 3000 site:archivedforum.beoworld.org’

For later forum: ‘Beosound 3000 site:archivedforum2.beoworld.org’

Obviously replace ‘Beosound 3000’ with your specific search!

I hope this helps in the meantime.

Mark, Guy,

thank you for responding. I am aware of the Google option. However, searching the archived forum in Beoworld, one does not have to leave the platform, it is more convenient, at least for me. And it worked well.

Btw., finally renewed my gold membership. Thanks a lot for your support and that you keep Beoworld alive and running.

Kind regards,

Rolf

Ah, one thing to mention: I appreciate the possibility of various payment methods, e. g. PayPal. I seem to remember that before the change, it has only been possible via credit card?
