There's no shame in asking for help to search. The forum is chock-full of very useful information, but finding them is another matter all together. The trick is knowing what "key words" to use - if you don't find what you need, just ask...

I had a hard time "knowing" how to search also.
What I found most useful is selecting "search", then selecting "advanced search", and then typing in specific word(s), or search for a certain member, and last but most importantly, on the forum search, go and HIGHLIGHT (click on) our LS FORUM. If you don't do that final step, you'll receive hits from the GX forum, the ES forum, etc.
I had a high level of annoyance until I specifically started selecting our 3rd Gen LS Forum, inside of the ADVANCED SEARCH.
Hope this helps.

Knowing the keywords is pretty critical in obtaining relevant results. Google search yields better results in many instances. This is also relevant to what is included in the FAQ's. We want these to be easy for new members to find info desired. If they aren't we welcome suggestions to improve the results.
What subjects are you looking for? What keywords are being used?
