Search facility

And still no Search facility

That bl**dy Samsung ad!

Yes, I’ve had it for a few days now.

Yes and yes.

Is it getting worse, did you have this black screen previously, Casdon?

And yes, it is still the Samsung ad.

Yes, the black screen is still happening, I got it just now.

Any joy yet, please?
(Along with the black screen issue!).

Thank you!

I'm hoping it's on it's way out, Jaxjacky!

It's a pity we can't tell whichever firm it is that We Are Not Interested!

I’ve had it Allira earlier today, but far less often.

🤞 it hasn't appeared today (yet)

Thank you!

🤞🤞

It's still there!

Reported, update awaited!

Hi all

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

We're looking into this now and will have it fixed as soon as possible.

Any joy, LilyGransnet?

Ps it happens from time to time on GN but no other site.

Help, LilyGransnet!

Separate issue but I keep getting a black rectangle covering the screen which says "Advertisement" and at the bottom "Please rotate your screen"..
It makes it impossible to see some threads and impossible to start a separate thread to report this.

If only happens on Gransnet and I get very few adverts so what is happening, please?

I'll report this post to make you aware.

I’m actually with Casdon 22/09/2025 21:35 on this.
The faff of trying the search facility, which only randomly works against the simple
just type into Google,
sometimes with just a username you recall,

or a title

or even a reference to the subject e.g. this morning I typed ID on Gransnet to find who was saying what about ID cards on GN in earlier years
Much easier and less stressful.

No it’s been off a while now
It’s never very good at best but it does usually work in it’s limited way

Can anyone else use the search facility? I can't use it and it is several days since reporte.

Has anyone used the search facility today? I know some people never get it to work but I always have but not today.

not working for me today

If you know a thread title, but can’t get into the posts on the thread through the Gransnet server, there is a way round it. Type the thread name into Google, and it will come up through your internet search facility. If you click on that, it will take you into see the full thread, I don’t know why, I think there is an issue with the internal server on Gransnet.

It’s really odd that it works for some of us and not for others. Since joining Gransnet, I’ve used a Samsung tablet then an iPad and an iPhone. Search has always worked for me (up to now) using any of these three and on both the desk top and mobile sites.
