Search Function

OK Now I want to search for something and I see the complaints about the search function.

Am I blind or is there no DATE function so that you can search for the most recent posts rather than a bunch of old garbage (couldn't find the tuuurrrrddd emoji) from a couple of years ago.

All I was looking for was one of the multitude of posts about the release date of 6252 to see if anyone had any update or workaround, and all there is are pages of various posts from 2020 and 2021 which are of no use to me,

If anyone from intuit is lurking in the shadows, how about a button in the search area to "list by most current" or something like that.

I guess I will just try to go through the last several pages and see what I find.

To do a google search:

"What you are looking for"  + site:proconnect.intuit.com/community

I have this suggestion bookmarked from a looong time ago; I changed the stuff after site: to match the current address of the forum (I think...)  Give it a try,

I've been saying the search function sucks since day one but does anybody listen to me ................................noooooooo! 

Many times I have searched for posts which should be a no brainer for the search function to find but it doesn't.  Like Anna mentioned, I have more luck going to Google and doing a search using ProSeries as part of the search such as "ProSeries search function sucks".  I have more luck with Google than I do with Intuit.  It's simply amazing that Intuit sends people here as a first stop but they can't spend a couple of bucks to make a decent search engine.
