In advanced search > search options > search in forums
some subforums are missing from the list, specifically "feature requests" and "report a bug":
It would be helpful to include those subforums, so as to be able to check whether a particular bug or feature request has already been filed.

I can see no reason for excluding said sections. Users can just opt not to search them if the results from those forums are overwhelming (which I can't imagine being the case for the vast majority of searches).iconogassed wrote: ↑Sun Jun 06, 2021 12:17 pmI will also request just re-including the bugs, feature requests, AND general questions subforums in the basic search (the latter two are also excluded, not just the bugs subforum, to be super-clear).

Alright, this should be fixed up now! Let us know if those forums are still not available for you under the Advanced Search
Re: [under review] missing subforums in advanced search
seems to be fixed now, thank you.
I agree, but this seems to be working now as well.iconogassed wrote: ↑Thu Aug 04, 2022 4:50 amReported almost two years ago
