Is there a way to search particular drupal forums on www.drupal.org/forum? There's a lot of good advice in these forums but I haven't been able to find them. As it stands, I would have to browse page by page.

Click the magnifying glass icon at the top of the page. Search. Then filter by "Forums & Issues."

Thanks yelvington. I had noticed the search icon and the filter and was hopeful. But it turns out it searches all forums and issues, whereas I'd like to search one particular forum.

As a concrete example, I have a question about module development and "pagers" and so I want to search the module development forum only.

The filtering method you described returns 17,000 hits with results from all forums and issues. That scope is too broad for my purposes.

It would seem to be a useful feature to be able to search just one forum as that would reduce the # of results.

there is no feature that allows searching of single forums.
