TheRedBadger Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I do a lot of digging all the time, but it seems like there's no longer an option to just search for downloads  . I had to guess where a particular file might be based on the letter of the alphabet it might start with :U . Carlos Si Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhrogPhlyer Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I search by: A) Clicking the "Popular Downloads" tab, then B) Clicking "Download Portal" or the more specific folder, then C) Putting my search word(s) in the Search box directly under the tabs at top. I hope this helps.  2 Always Aviate, then Navigate, then Communicate. And never be low on Fuel, Altitude, Airspeed, or Ideas.

beroun Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Would be great to have the Latest Downloads (by date) list shortcut. AVSIM has Whats New button, very useful. Peter Bendl ex. British Airways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhrogPhlyer Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 By clicking: A) "Discussions" tab, then B) Clicking "xxx Landing Page", then C) "Latest xxx Files" will be the right hand column.

Tom Gibson Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I search by Browse/Downloads - then use the search box in the upper right corner. Note you cannot search by file name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cricket29 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 How do I search for "Complete Aircraft Only" in a category such as 'early aircraft' ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhrogPhlyer Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 This has been answered several times in the New Forum Software string. At the moment there is no search for complete/update/repaint/etc. Content creators will have to improve upload names and descriptions with stronger search words. For now, searching as specifically as you can: United 727 not just 727 for example. This will be self correcting over time with updates and new uploads.

jorgen.s.andersen Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 A quote from Tom Gibson's post: "Note you cannot search by file name." Â This is something really important that is missing here. Â Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been addressed by admin several times in the New Forum Software string. It is something being looked at; and as new capabilities are added to the new software they have kept us informed. 1 Always Aviate, then Navigate, then Communicate. And never be low on Fuel, Altitude, Airspeed, or Ideas.
