Search function not current

I have noticed this for awhile, but it has not been too important. When I do a search both regular and advanced (when looking for my posts) on a word, I do not always get the most recent results.

For example: I used the word "Orientum" yesterday in a post and it was not in the results.

Although it was a more recent post. I have noticed that on other searched I done it only brought up posts over a week old and nothing in the past couple of days.

Yeah, the search option is not working. Hope they fix it soon.

Advanced search options not fully functional right now, but the 'drop down menu' search will be able to provide you with most of what you would need.

Search again and you should be able to find what you are looking for.

Note: to conserve system resources to allow server operations on the forums to run smoothly and reliably, search results are not immediately updated, but are generated on a regular interval.

Looks like it is working now. There were 8 post in "Orientum" in the past 2 weeks based on 2 searches I did. Before, there were none. Todays is not there, but I was not expecting it to be there.
