Hi all. We're interested in adding some hints to the top of the Search Questions page, to help people get the most out of our search engine. Here are a few ideas I thought of. But you may have more?
You can also comment on features you would like our search engine to have. I'll add those ideas to our development wish list. But first I'd like to implement suggestions for using our current SE. Thanks!
Best,
Val

Search Questions
We have a growing knowledge base of more than 2,000 marketing questions previously asked in KHE. So there's a good chance you will find what you're looking for. Here are a few pointers to help you search.
- The search engine will find all the questions that include your search term in the question title or the body of the question. It will not give you discussions that include your search term in one of the answers. (Currently, there is no way to search the answers.)
- Let's say you wanted to find a question about "BTL" (below the line). When you search on "BTL" you could get questions including the word "suBTLe" mixed in your search results. So scan your results, and choose a headline that looks likely. Then use your browser's FIND feature to quickly jump to "BTL" on that page.
- KHE began operating in January 2004, so you can't search any earlier than that. The end date is fixed on today's date.
- You can put a member's name in the Search Term box to find all questions posted by a member (or questions that mention the member in the body of the question).
- Boolean operators don't work with this search engine. So you can't cross-reference two search terms like "marketing AND plan". But you can search for "marketing plan".

Functionality Feedback
(for future development)
* Is it difficult to work with the end date being fixed?
* Should we search answers too?
* Would it be helpful to add # Responses to the results page? (per SRyan)
