This discussion thread was locked by EarlG (a host of the Announcements group).

DU will be down for scheduled maintenance today at 2pm ET.

We expect the downtime to last between 30-90 minutes, but shorter/longer downtime is certainly possible.

Thanks for your understanding!

8. Thanks for the heads up.

I would panic a little bit if I signed in and found the site down. I still have some PTSD from the hack in 2016! Thank you for keeping this place in tip top shape. Trolls will undoubtedly be looking to take us down again.

20. you may have messed up the advanced search function

goes to a blank page and when I try to refresh asks to resend info then gives a yellow band error message

Your search was unsuccessful because the software cannot verify the legitimacy of the search attempt. Please go back and resubmit your search.

I tried a couple of different parameters and usernames.

[Yonnie3]

21. Same for me n/t

[soothsayer]

22. There's a search function?

[Yonnie3]

23. Yes

At the top of the screens there is a search box with "Google" next to it that will search this site using Google.

For Star members there is a link just under that for an "advanced search" that allows a more specific search.

[soothsayer]

25. Well thanks!

[Ptah]

24. Yes.

Advanced search

[soothsayer]

26. And thanks

[Kali]

27. there is a google search box for everybody

star members have access to an advanced search

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=myaccount&sub=star

you can donate any small amount

[Rhiannon12866]

30. Advanced Search is up in the right hand corner

You can Search by subject, forum or author and the fallback is to Search for the last month, but that can be adjusted, too. I use it to Search for duplicates or any subject and it's essential when I'm on MIRT.

28. That's happened to me a couple times in the recent past but it's worked for me recently

[Rhiannon12866]

29. Thanks, Kali! Advanced Search isn't working for me, either.

And I use it a lot! This has been since DU came back up after today's short maintenance. I was wondering if this was true for anyone else.

[Kali]

31. good to know it isn't just me

especially since I was having some other computer problem earlier today

[Rhiannon12866]

32. Well, I used it right before the maintenance shutdown and it hasn't worked since

So I figured it could be related. And I'm also glad that it isn't just me!

[Rhiannon12866]

33. Seems to be working again finally

I don't know why, but it hadn't been working since DU came back up earlier today.

[Kali]

35. now if I could remember who I was snooping on

[Yonnie3]

34. It appears to work again this morning. n/t
