I thought Id add more detail and screenshots and RaGEZONE Search.

Searching
Search before you post. Quite often what you need to know has already been posted before. I prefer to use the google search but it is a good idea to use both.

Google Search
To use google to search RaGEZONE simply go to google and type the following before your search

site:forum.ragezone.com/f452

Say I wanted to search RaGEZONE for Search, I would type the following


--------Edit---------
With the addition of subsections and a 1.4.4 section using the above url no longer produces useful results. Instead you have to use the url for the particular subsection you want to search. If you want to search all then you can copy and paste the following into google and add your search terms at the end. I highly recommend using the firefox seach plugins in the next post instead.
1.3.6

site:forum.ragezone.com/f755 OR site:forum.ragezone.com/f756 OR site:forum.ragezone.com/f693 OR site:forum.ragezone.com/f694 OR site:forum.ragezone.com/f695

1.4.4

site:forum.ragezone.com/f750 OR site:forum.ragezone.com/f751 OR site:forum.ragezone.com/f752 OR site:forum.ragezone.com/f753 OR site:forum.ragezone.com/f754

---------------------

This search does have its disadvantages though as it requires google to have archived the thread first.

RaGEZONE Search
This will teach you how to use the RaGEZONE Search.
1) Click the search at the top of the forum and choose adavanced


2) Look at all those options. Select Pefect World and type in your keywords. For the adventurous you can try some of the many other options. Then click "Search Now".


If you are having trouble here is Prof Google to teach you how to search
How To Search

Please Remember to Search before you post. If I do not see evidence of searching I will delete your post or thread.

I was getting tired of typing "site:forum.ragezone.com/f452" so I made this firefox search plugin.



Link removed

To use simply find copy the ragezone.xml to your searchplugins directory. Then restart firefox and you are good to go.

In Window 7 and most likely Vista it is located here

C:\Users\YourUser\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\000000.default\searchplugins

Other OS I'm not sure about. Check your documents first then try program files.

--------Edit-------

Updated to be able to search all areas of each section. There are two separate plugins this time. One for 1.3.6 and one for 1.4.4. This way you can choose which section you want to search.

Get it here.
