It's still there.....you just need to be creative in finding it :-) In other words, they don't make it easy!

Through trial and error I found that you need to be in the forum you are searching. At the top of the forum page, there is a search bar you can type your query into. It will list search functions in various areas but the first listed should be the forum you want to search. If you click 'enter', it should turn up the relevant hits in that forum. A search of Perennials for 'coleus' turned up this: https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/peren/query/coleus/nqrw

And since coleus are often grown as annuals, a search of the Annuals forum turned up this: https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/annuals/query/coleus/nqrw

Both helpful. GG I must be getting ...well something....I swear I looked at the top of page a dozen times: up in the corners, at the top top, on the margins. It's pretty pitiful when someone like me thinks they could design a better web page.

I don't know, GG, if you ever looked again at my post about my disappeared clems. I found your answer helpful and encouraging. Wanted to say thanks again.

addendum: I had found that search bar but the results were so bizarre I figured something was wrong with me or it. I see what you did, GG. The results still lead me to think it's not a very "discerning" search function, for lack of a better word.....in other words, it's not google by a long shot.

Follow up: GG your method had mixed results. I cruised through a few answers and none of actually had "inky fingers."

cab 84's actually got me to a few posts that had, specifically, the words "inky fingers."

I wasn't so interested in that coleus, but was trying to nail down how to get to a more specific topic than just "coleus" and since I've always been amused by the name I started there.

Thanks, both.

Go to the forum you want to search.

There is a magnifying glass up top- type your search term there but don't click yet!

A dropdown box will appear with forum options- click the one that is the forum you want to search.

Your results threads will then appear.

this is how i would do your 2 searches...

They don't make it easy to find it, but it's still there. You just have to get creative to find it :-)

Through trial and error and testing it through http://tennisunit.com/, I found you must be in the forum you are searching for. There is a search bar at the top of the forum page, where you can type in your query. Under various sections, you will find the search function, but it should appear under the forum you are most interested in searching. As soon as you click 'enter', relevant results will appear.

How simple:)

One other question. How can I save a picture here on houzz? my old PC has alot of my older garden photos and cant access them untill I get it fixed but I see I uploaded a few of them here but when I righ click to save it I get nothing?? I am on a newer PC

Anybody?

Left click on the pic first and then see if a right click works.

tj

Neither right or left does anything. I tried in google chrome browser and a edge browser and the same thing in both browsers

Are you guys able to save pics?

"Are you guys able to save pics?"

Only via screenshots.

drag the picture you want to save onto your desk top.

That worked! Thanks Jeb
