With the current situation taking place in the Market Place, is it possible to at least get a page number when doing a forum search?

At the time of writing, the feedback thread is 284 pages - a lot for someone to look through for feedback.

Obviously this would be useful at other times too.

Google box:-

"<username> feedback site:kvraudio.com/forum/"

i.e.,

"fandango feedback site:kvraudio.com/forum/"
"Goseba feedback site:kvraudio.com/forum/"

But I would still prefer a system like the one I mentioned for Feedback.

You'll have to search for it though... :hihi: :hug:

Thanks, I hadn't thought of doing a search like that.

But I was also talking in general so that anyone who doesn't know to do that can get better results.

Well if you pick "Posts" in the "Display results as" field, you get the individual posts with the search hit instead of the whole thread. But again, you need to specify accurately whose feedback you're looking for.

Hadn't noticed that little button, thanks.

Yeah but you still hit the problem that if the search results go over one page it loses its focus

That's another (rather old) problem:

I know

I use to simply introduce the member's name in the Market Place's search field. For example, I have just searched for "Goseba" and have found all the feedback posts regarding Goseba, as everyone giving feedback writes the other member's name.
