Problem with search function

Problem with search function

Hi, I've been having trouble with the search function since joining a few weeks ago. Tonight I'm trying to get to the Raid Bug Off competition but it doesn't come up when I search for these words. Yet when I manually go to all comps requiring a purchase it comes up then. This has happened with a couple of comps I've been searching for.
Thanks in advance for any help,

Thanks, it's actually a Raid fly spray comp which I can't get to through the search function.

Im assuming this is the comp you are searching for?

If you notice the words " Raid Bug Off" are not in the comp posting at all so you will not find it using these words in search.

However typing Raid into the first search field and chosing Store/Product comps will bring it up in search

I had the same trouble. bugoff works because its listed that way (without the space) in the website address.

Thanks for the advice, but even when I type Fiji into the search option, it still doesn't come up even though that is the title of the comp. I don't understand why.

If I type "Fiji" into search field it comes up as the 19th post ;)

Are you going to the next page of your search results? :)

Aha, that's the problem. I thought there was only one page of results because I'm used to looking on the left-hand side for the number of pages. Thanks for your time in helping me.

Glad its sorted
The only problem usually with search is the users input :)
