Search option in boards

Hi guys,

 

Can we get a search option in the boards? There's now one search function in the overall 'Forums' page, but if you drill into a category, e.g. 'Desktop', there's no search functionality anymore. A proper search function would definitly prevent a lot of double questions, since you could search before asking a question 🙂 

 

Thanks!

 Thanks for the feedback @TomG. We'll try to get that done. It should be an easy fix, but what would you think about that search box searchin not only on that forums but on all of them?

Data for Everyone! We mean it

Hmm I think it should search within the page you currently are. So, in http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Forums/ct-p/Forums it should search in everything. But at http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/bd-p/power-bi-designer it should only search in the listed topics. And optionally in http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Help-with-sum-of-distinct-count-filter/m-p/8594 it should search within this topic. Ctrl-F doesn't do the job since there are 2 pages in that topic.

 

Thanks! Glad I could help 🙂
