Sorry, not really sure where this belongs, so putting it here for maximum visibility, feel free to lock/delete once addressed.

There's a typo "USES SEARCH" (between FORUM INDEX and DEV POSTS buttons in the top left of this page). Should be "USER SEARCH" surely?

Very minor, but it's bugging me :)

Thanks.

It's not a typo, it's actually a suggestion to people who post duplicate threads about what people who aren't bad posters should do.

Ok, that was just a joke, but I don't even see that. I see "Search". Is it on a specific page that you see it say "Uses Search"?

I too see it saying "Uses Search" on the navigation bar on every page, and have done for some time.

Are you using a greasemonkey script to make the forums look like the old style forums?
That might be the cause.

I would concur, it looks like this for me:

Probably depends on your theme. I use the orange nebula theme and it says USES SEARCH.

Browser specific rendering perhaps? I'm using Chrome and I see the problem.

EDIT:

Scrap that, I see it in IE10 too. I'm using the default theme - never messed with themes at all.

It makes no difference. I get it with or without the script on multiple different browsers.

Chrome, Firefox, IE all show "search" on my end with the orange nebula theme. (win7 x64); that's some serious web gremlins :)

EDIT: reason found:

I switched the forum language to German: now the button says "uses search" Changing the forum language back to English, it still says "uses search" Cry

Ahh, I use the Amarr theme and it doesn't show it.

Except when I make posts! Then it shows it there too.

I'll pass the issue along to our web team.

Edit: Oh great, now it says "Uses search" everwhere.

Argh - I have to pass it on - Remember "The Ring" movie anyone?

Well, they oughta know what to do with them hogs out there for shure.
