If you can find what you need from the just subject line then you can find what you need until Paul is able to fix this.

Just hit the hourglass icon and select 'Search in topic subjects only'

Thanks guys, it should be fixed now. Took me a while to figure out the problem. Looks like the search index got deleted from database (maybe I ran the forum software optimize feature and it deleted?). Anyway, did a few internet searches and came across this post http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=274198.0

Basically, all I had to do then was go into SMF admin panel under "search" and change the "Search Method" from "No index" to "Full Text Index" (and create the search index by doing so).

If you experience any further search problems then please let me know.
