I won't even bother to mention that even with the correct forum slected all all forums selected it still doesn't work... incase it wasn't obvious i'd duplicated the error to show and had simply done it wrong THAT time.
Yes, this is why I pointed out the second problem, with having common words inside phrases. There's actually also a 3rd problem - the post you were aiming for with your first example was edited, and no part of the phrase you were looking for remains. On the second one, if you just
search for yellow, it does get the desired result.
Let me explain: the forum search was designed for finding posts based on keywords, not phrases. There can be downsides to this, but at the present time the only option is to use single keywords.
I'm sorry you're not happy with the way it works, but all I can do right now is offer you a work-around.
