Search/la

Si estás buscando la configuración de las búsquedas, mira: Search (admin)

Asumiendo que el foro está usando el tema por defecto de SMF (o un derivado de el), deberá de haber ambas opciones, un campo de búsqueda (acompañado por un botón de búsqueda avanzada) en la sección superior de el foro y un botón de búsqueda en el menú principal, de no ser así, el botón del menú pricipal debe de llevarte a la página de búsqueda avanzada.

Mientras puedes simplemente buscar por cualquier combinación de caracteres, deberás considerar usar modificadores para refinar tu búsqueda.

El campo de búsqueda localizado en la parte superior de el foro en el tema por defecto de SMF hará, cuando te encuentres en un tema, buscar solo en ese tema. lo mismo es para los foros, si tu estás en un foro y realizas una búsqueda, esta se realizará solo en el foro en donde te encuentres.

Búsqueda simple

To use the simple search (if enabled), the basic syntax outlined above is all you really need to know. But you might also like to know that this tool searches the entire forum for any or all of what you specify that's been posted during the last 9999 days (which is more than 27 years)! So, to take more control of your search, you should use the advanced search feature.

Advanced search

Although the advanced search screen might initially seem a little intimidating if a forum has many boards and child boards, it's surprisingly straightforward when reduced to its basic components.

• Some forums show the navigation tree at the top in a space-saving horizontal mode.
• Despite initial appearances, there are really three options for how to search, with Match all words and Match any words being available from the drop-down, and "Match as phrase" still being available.
• The default * in the by user field is essentially a wildcard matching any poster. Please note that, while you can replace this with any single username for a more specific search, it's not currently possible to search for posts by multiple users except as that single wildcard.
• Show results as messages returns the full message containing the search string (with a reply option) instead of the usual linked excerpt, but will naturally result in much larger results pages which might be significant if you are searching for a popular word or phrase.
• Message age sets the minimum and maximum ages of posts to search.
• Choose a board to search in provides you with another tool to narrow the scope of the search, with the default being 'all' (the whole forum or, more properly, all the boards to which you have read access).
• The Search button not surprisingly sets the whole thing in motion, but hitting 'Enter' direct from any of the search fields is sometimes more convenient.

Modifiers

Using the simple or advanced search methods, you can still use search modifiers. That is, powerful special characters which modify the way SMF handles your search string.

• Phrase search - use double quotes (") around your term ("search term") to search for the search term as a phrase instead of individual words.
• Excluding terms - use a minus sign in front of terms you'd like to exclude from the search result. For instance, "search -term" will search for "search" but not "term". The minus sign must have a space prior to it.

More search modifiers may be found at Google's help page. Although, not all of them may be useful in SMF at the present time.

Search options

See Search (admin) for options for the administrator to configure searching.
