Is the Forum's "google search" disabled?

Sirach2 · #1 Dec 31, '11, 5:56 pm

I tried several times to access it, but the message indicates that it is not available.
The regular "advanced search" is still available, but it does not permit multiple wording that one can use in the google search.

I have the same problem. Here is the error message I get when I try to access the Google Search feature:

Dale_M, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

The page may have been pulled from the public forum due to a serious breach of forum rules.
Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Go to Google and include this directive along with your search terms: site:forums.catholic.com.

For instance search for site:forums.catholic.com do a barrel roll

Thanks, Tee ... that gives a secondary option to use in the meanwhile. I'm hoping this was not permanently disabled here and is just a bug of sorts.

It's not working for me either. Is it being disabled?

Just found this thread. Guess I'll link to the thread I created a couple of days ago. Not being able to use the Google search feature is very frustrating.

Bump.

Is this problem being looked at and worked on, so it is soon resolved? Anybody?
