How do you focus searches on a certain forum like "for sale" or Engine? When I did a search I got a bunch of posts but they were all jumbled up, not in chronalogical order.

I did find out why the posts were jumbled up. You have to select how you want the posts viewed. I chose date and they were OK but I still don't know how to zero in on one forum or just a couple of them.
 
Click the search button with nothing in the box and it takes you to a more advanced search page. The new search engine is still in the works.

Default Search tab is "Search Multiple Content Types" I think what you are looking for is on the "Search Single Content Type" tab.

Hold down "CRTL" to click-select multiple forums to search.
