this probably looks bad but I didn't know there was any other way to search besides the box.

Good to know, this is the feedback we're looking for.

Use hit and miss usually. Not by intention, just turns out that way often.
Would love a few examples of misses so we can better understand how to improve the instant search.

It looks like my vote is not being registered: I selected Threadloom "beta " search but the results show 0 votes for that.
I tried several times to no avail.

Is it possible to have/enable more than 50 results returned on a search? Seems like a limiting factor if one is trying to research something.

To clarify, you are referring to the live search feature? I'll take a look and see if it's an easy fix.

Guess so - increased to 150 for now. Planning more enhancements on this soon.

Threadloom is exactly the functionality I was hoping for. Now I can surf Futures.io without being on the site thanks to the editable search query results .
(To anyone interested, the string for Futures.IO is https://nexusfi.com/threadloom.php?query=%s&tab=3489 )
This thread is what pushed me in the right direction. One way to make the functionality of Threadloom more obvious is to display it as an option more prominently or give it a more generic alias like 'Updated Advanced Search (Threadloom Beta )' since most people expect an update to be better but might be unsure what Threadloom is.
