sahm99 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 The WTM-forum's search function is the backbone of my homeschooling:D. But...how on earth can I search for more than one term at the same time:confused:??? e.g. I want to only find posts that have BOTH, "ToG" AND "SL" in their title... Whenever I put these two into the (advanced) search, I have all the threads with EITHER showing up, too... Any way to change, and only have the "AND-threads" showing up? Clear as mud? Thank you!!!

VaKim Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I find it much easier just to use Google's advanced search. http://www.google.com/search?q=tog+and+sonlight+site%3Awelltrainedmind.com&hl=en&newwindow=1&num=10&lr=&ft=i&cr=&safe=active&tbs= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you!! I've used the advanced search function prodigiously the last few years, yet have not been on the boards in the last month. I come back to find that now when I try to search for two words in the title only, it brings up any threads that have EITHER word instead of both. :confused: Any way to get this fixed?

VaKim Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 ...what exactly do you put into google, to indicate the WTM-Forum? THANK YOU!!!:001_smile: Here is the Google advanced page, just as I did the search above. http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=tog+and+sonlight+site:welltrainedmind.com&hl=en&lr=&newwindow=1&safe=active&prmd=ivns Down where it says, "search within site or domain," you type in welltrainedmind.com.

Nature Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I'm having the same problem. When I search for something and put quotes around it, I want to get the exact set of words within the quotations, but instead I get results with one or the other word.
