I just had the pleasure of using the updated SEARCH function and I am blown away. It is fast and easy and better than I have ever seen. It is a great update, AGN. Thank you for the improvement.
Adding a user name picks up the keywords from anyone, not just the person of interest. For common search terms, it produces so many results that it loses its usefulness.
I like it TBH. Michael had a lot of trouble with the old search. Not sure what the problems were but I've never looked at that code. It was hard to work with.
This new one is google based. If anyone has figured out how to search "random" data for a pattern of words, google has done that.

It does seem to work well, but I was having some trouble with using the filter tabs. I'm guessing it will just take some getting used to and working out some glitches. Keep up the good work Michael!
