So I went to the main Calibre forum and just searched Polish Books like you did. Results weren't super helpful. So instead, I chose Advanced Search, selected Search Titles Only and searched Polish Books. Bingo! It was thread #2. |

Whereas for me, it was pop a new tab open, type my search terms and it simply worked. No having to remember to check the search child forums, etc.

Really? I just tried opening Advanced Search in the E-Book Software forum and the checkbox for Also search in child forums was not checked. I checked it and did a search. Switched forums to the E-Book Readers forum, opened Advanced Search and the checkbox was not checked. Went back to E-Book Software and still no check mark.

This works well: Go to Google and search on "polish books site:mobileread.com"

I am not trying to imply that is wrong, just helping out a fellow member who may or may not know how to use the native forum search. |

I will always use the advanced search from now on.
Thanks, everyone. |

Interesting. I just tested from 6 different browsers over 1 physical and 3 virtual machines. In none of those was the search child forums checkbox pre-checked. Perhaps a web dev might be able to explain what's going on.

Here's a screenshot of what advanced search looks like for me. I thought maybe it was specific to Calibre, so I switched over to Other Ebook Readers and got the same thing.

And I am still left wondering why I do not see the box checked.

I've just joined up and often see The Ducks so I thought I'd stick my neck out and ask you how on earth do you use this website? Where do I post a question? That is, where do I actually type a question? Thank you for your understanding.
