Posted - 25 Jul 2012 : 19:09:10 Is there anyway of searching the scrolls and as what I have found instead if the parent scroll, it is not bad in small scrolls but the sages scrolls are usually 50-60+ pages ....

But yeah, do the Google thing Sage recommended. I only started putting the site criteria into my searches about a year ago, and MAN, how did I ever live without that?
I just found out about it reading this scroll... No more trolling through 60 pages of a scroll to find the one mention of what I'm looking for... Glorious! Can't believe it didn't occur to me to do that! |

Thank you all I will use google search, in regards to the site v 2 are you in need of volunteers to work in this? I am a software developer and I would not mind helping if required.
Alaundo's always keen on input from the scribes of Candlekeep, so if you've got any ideas and/or suggestions you'd like to put forth, simply contact him via his email, and he'll handle the rest. |

Dark matter and stuff.
They're pretty sure it's real and exists. But it's anyone's guess as to when we'll actually see anything substantial come of it! |

And if I recall has been in planing only three or more years.
Actually, I recall discussions about Candlekeep 2 dating back to at least early 2008.

I do believe those others are weary, and rightfully so, of being caught in the gravitas of my famed "To-Do" list.

Candle keep 2 ?! What is it written on?
Candlekeep 2 will be a new forum architecture designed with updated forum software. It's an attempt to incorporate and streamline a lot of unavailable functions and currently active functions here on the ASP version of Candlekeep.

Posted - 26 Jul 2012 : 20:53:23 The keep's search genie is rather easily overwhelmed and confused; I suspect Alaundo's binding spells have somewhat impaired its cognitive capacities.
However, the mystical google orb employs much more sophisticated search genies, and they can be invoked rather easily by issuing search imperatives much like this one:
site:forum.candlekeep.com "halaster" |

Posted - 26 Jul 2012 : 20:42:31 For example searching for halaster I get a ton of scrolls with load of pages but I don't know which pages I should look into

Posted - 26 Jul 2012 : 01:49:45 I'm not quite sure what you're asking here, Portella.
Are you querying whether there's a method to search for something specific in a significantly voluminous scroll?
If so, then I'm afraid I must note that Candlekeep presently has no function which allows for such discriminatory searching. It is, however, a function that will be incorporate into Candlekeep 2.
As an alternative, you can freely use Google to define the specific parameters of your search -- simply include the Candlekeep.com Forum address in your search criteria, and you should easily find what you're looking for. |
