Q&A: Improvement on the Site
Improvement on the Site
Question
Is there any way to find a comment that was written some time ago? Why does the Google search search only the articles themselves and not all the text here on the site? Many times a person wants to return to material he once saw and doesn’t know how to find it.
Answer
I passed it on to Oren, the editor. I also often can’t find things I’m looking for.
Discussion on Answer
Oren, I recommend you try finding something in the haystack piling up around you; I never manage to get where I want to go.
Also, another suggestion that exists on other sites: a button saying, ‘Click to see more recent comments,’ where one can follow around a hundred or two hundred of the latest comments, for someone who isn’t constantly glued to the site and wants to see the interesting discussions.
Google search searches all the text, not just the articles themselves. You can search for a specific comment on Google.
