Search in Sparkforge Communities now spans posts and comments from a single bar. Type a keyword or author name and matching posts and comments come back in one combined view inside the Discussion tab.
What You Can Search
- Post titles and content: match on the exact title or any text inside the post body.
- Comment content: find a comment buried under a post by searching its text.
- Author names: pull every post and comment from a specific member.
How to Search
- Open the Discussion tab inside your community.
- Click into the global search bar at the top of the dashboard.
- Enter a keyword, phrase, or author name.
- Posts and comments matching your query appear together in the results.
- Click any result to jump to the post or comment in context.
Why It Matters
Members no longer have to remember whether they saw something in a post or in a reply. One query covers both, plus authorship, so the right thread surfaces fast even as the community grows.
