Is it just me, or is the search facility on the wonk again? Trying to search for anything from the home page gets a Runtime error and searching in the forums is only coming back with a few posts...

Can you install an "All Posts Read" button, which I can click before leaving the site, making it easier to see what's new when I return?

Not without a major revamp of the site, no, much though we'd like it.

It is not working for me either.

If I type in "hdmi", "audio" or "ipod" I ought to get pages of results. I am only getting one or two at most.

That is the expected behaviour of the current version. Not ideal, but on the list.

Is this me confusing searching for user posts and searching forums?

Update:  there's a definite issue, investigating now.
