It doesn't seem to be working. Whatever I type into the Search box just returns a blank page confused

I'm getting just a blank page on my iMac, with no text whatever, or a 'no search results' on my iPhone.

It has never worked properly.
I know kittylester, it's always been pretty useless, but now it's not working at all (well for me, anyway!)

This is the screen I got when I tried to search for my own username, which should have returned some results!

That's the usual one. Try googling - that usually works!

Well yes, I could. But I wasn't actually interested in finding posts by me. This was just an exercise to show that the search facility isn't just poor (as it always has been) but is non-existent, at least on my iMac. I should try it on another device...

Can you let us know what device and browser you're using to access the site? flowers
