Am I being a numpty?

Couple of odd things tonight on the forum.

Firstly, the Search option has disappeared at the top. Secondly, links on members' profiles to Find all posts by.... or Find all threads started by... are unauthorised links for me.

There may be other stuff but that's enough for me to ask if I've upset someone or summat?

Hi Dougie.
It could be that you are not a subscribed member, so some section will be out of your reach.

I'm sure one of the top brass will know and post here for you.

Hi Steve, I'm not a subscribed member and haven't been for several years, but I've never been restricted for bread-&-butter features such as Search!

Dougie, since the last "updates" the "search" does not work for me, unless I use the "advanced search", which I can put up with.

Thing is though, the search option at the top is no longer there so I have no means of searching the forum. Unless I'm missing something, 90% of the forum's functionality and therefore use for me has been removed. Here's a screenshot of what I see using any browser: -

Pay your ten quid! Have you not had multiple times worth of free advice? I believe any main franchise dealer will not look at a car for less than £100 an hour.

Oh please. Let's be adults.

That is odd that having had the ability, it now is not there, regardless of subscription or not.

Which is exactly my point and why I am asking the question. Is the search facility still available for you?
