"Your search criteria return no matched results. Please try again"

But I know this is not the case. I get this three out of every times I use the advance search archives function.

1. I've been wondering about that.
Hope this isn't innappropriate, but every time I try to get into the archives I get an error message that says, among other things, that "The information you requested cannot be displayed because it is no longer available":

The page you requested cannot be displayed.
This feature is temporarily unavailble. Sorry for the inconvenience.
The information you requested cannot be displayed because it is no longer available. If you think this is in error, please contact the site administrator.
If you have any questions, please contact the site administrator.

Is something up with the archives? :shrug:

3. I think the search option only works for donors, but
you can use Google. I think the that including "site: democraticunderground.com" (or something like that) will restrict the search to DU.

2. Be sure to check the box that says
"Also search the archives" after selecting the Advanced Search" option.

4. I've tried it several different ways
Ever since they revamped the archive system, and it doesn't work for me most of the time.

Edited on Sun Jul-09-06 03:08 AM by rman
making the search function virtually useless.
