ok. right now there are 2 posts on the top with titles: "I have GM permission is a Game I am not a GM in." and "Macro Rolls seem to get stuck". i put the exact title of the post on the search and i didn't find them. an other thing that i found is that the post that i find from the search are more than 6 month ago. nothing earlier. I'm sorry for my bad english

No problem. The Search rewrite is a new feature, and Steve has mentioned he is working on improvements. I'll escalate this thread to him.

Currently the forums are being re-indexed every evening. So, that means you won't find brand new posts in the search until the next day.

There is no sorting so for example trying to search "apocalypse" shows months old topics in random order.

Well, the whole point of advanced seach was to be able to select how to order the result, see the date of last post etc.
