Search fails to find Atricle

  • Searching Google I found an article, on this site, 'Custom Report Item - Part I' but when you enter 'Custom Report Item' into your search box.. nothing is found!

  • this happens google search always works better, i always type "sqlservercentral <search criteria>"

    google is way faster

  • The Google API we use sometimes flakes, not sure why.

    If you use Prakash' suggestion, that should work.

  • Can this be "fixed"? I was in 2012 forum and saw title on replication, so I searched the forum contents for replication and was informed that there were no results matching my search. This causes this site to become less useful and potentially causes users to look elsewhere for answers. If the search is truly broken, perhaps offer the Google results for SQLServerCentral YourSearchTopic as an option when no results are returned.

    Thanks for the tip though, I'll use it for searching in Forums when I get no results.

  • It works, but sometimes the box we submit to Google doesn't return the results correctly. We don't implement our own search here, we use the Google API to run the search.

    You can get the same thing from typing "site:sqlservercentral.com report item" in the Google box.

    It works here, just sometimes the web service flakes.
