Linux Mint Forums

AFAIK: This is a Firefox only technique:
Here's how to search forums.linuxmint.com easily

Goto http://forums.linuxmint.com/
In the Search box provided there, right mouse click and select
"Add a Keyword for this Search"
click it.
Dialog box pops up - Name: "Search Linux Mint Forums"
Folder: can be anywhere in your bookmarks.
Keyword: "LM" (but the choice is yours as usual in Linux)
Click Save

To use it, open a new Firefox tab and type LM <search_word>

Enjoy the Minty goodness!

Thanks Habitual
I tried that - it works

The trouble is that in general the search function on this forum is pretty poor. If I seriously want to search this forum I have to use a google search with something like:
This gives far better results.

I think it was Dr Hu that pointed that one out to me, it really works.

Well, I use several tools as an experienced Linux user.
a Google Custom Search on my iGoogle page is the main one.

Bottom line is I never trust 1 source for an definitive answer.
Unless it's Kendall, tdockery97, oscar799, vralak, richyrich, viking777, or Aging Technogeek coughing up the advice.

Thanks for the nice compliment, Habitual.

You're welcome.

Add Dr Hu to the list
