Hi! I'm Pete. I like plants. I am not good at growing plants.

Magazine search not really showing up what I'm looking for. Think it's the algorithm rather than lack of content.
  • I'm a new kbin user. It feels like the "search" box for Magazines only (?) searches the magazines' description field? For example, if I search the word "silicon", I get a search result for the magazine "[email protected]".

    That magazine has a description including the text, "A magazine for news and discussion about a small Silicon Valley fruit company". Note the word "silicon" as part of silicon valley.

    If I search "silicon fruit", I get no results. If I search "silicon valley", I again get the same magazine.

    I found this magazine ([email protected]) by searching for the word "feedback".

    I'm still experimenting to see how best to navigate and find what I want.

    I'd also love to find a magazine or thread that is something like "new users", "user guide", "how to setup your kbin profile", etc. Trying to search for terms like that isn't getting me anything I want.

    Happy forum'ing!
