Default Help with search function

Can anyone advise me on the search feature? I am trying to find a list of all the things you can wish for. When I search, I get multiple instances of the same thread, which means a lot of extra hits. Is there a way to filter this?

I don't think there's a way to filter. However, make sure to + all your search terms if you're looking for more than one, and you should probably check the box "Show a preview of post body with results" to make it easy to pick out the relevant messages. I hope that's helpful when you do your next search.

Depending on what you're looking for, sometimes you can find things by only searching subject lines, instead of subject and body.

You can also use a Google site search like:

Oh and just so you know, "wishES" may not be the most useful search term..... IIRC, the best thread was titled "complete wish list". Good luck!
