So I typed the search box, clicked the lens thingy. Most of the old posts don't show up.
For example, I tried to find an old thread with the name of the poster (e.g. Colorado). Only one recent thread showed up. I was looking for charity names and some info on them in Switzerland... and in the old threads there were some excellent replies. I tried searching in other ways, using this site's search tool, still little success.
I even tried googling with site:www.glocals.com, little comes up.
Feedback: Search should index usernames, preferably everything on the site. Not only is this good for glocals community, it is good for glocals because new users may learn about glocals when they are searching for information.

Hi guys
All of the posts from the old site were copied to the new site.
If you remember the subject of a thread you posted, which you can't find, just send it to me and I'll look into it.
Thanks
Oded
