Is there a way to search the contents of a forum? All of them?

I don't know how to search a single forum.

To search all the public forums, choose Forums > All public forums from the top menu bar, then "Search Forums" from the blue menu bar. This gives you a choice between a search by author and date, and a Google search on the content.

When you use the google search, type in the name of the forum first [eg: Only Chess, General, or whatever] then the majority of the results will be from that forum.

Thanks! I'd wondered how to limit the possibilities, especially when I was pretty sure which forum the original post was in!
