In Filter Forge 6.006 Pro "macOS Sierra" When Searching for filters nothing comes up for what I am looking for? I have many filters with "rivets" in the keywords. Not funny when looking for something....


Pulling my hair out big time... smile:?:



Thank you,
Jack...

I looked at this on the Mac. My conclusions: The Search for filters on your local machine is searching for Title & Author, but not Keyword. So you can get around the rivet thing by searching for Author... if that doesn't return too many results. Until this gets looked at a bit harder by the FF devs.

As an aside, FF 5 on the Mac does search for keywords in this case.

Sorry, just checked. If you have the filter Sugar Sprinkles, one of the keywords is "yogurt". On the web a search for "yogurt" works, but the internal browser search does not. "sugar" works since it is in the title. All Mac OSX. of course.

I'll also report in that the update and Beta versions haven't resolved the issue.

I guess This problem is not going to be resolved? smile:evil:
I'm assume the new version is not going to be resolved either??

I can't support your product on my group if it still has this huge bug. (SAD)

I'm afraid we can't fix something that we're unable to reproduce.

Chiming in again, I just don't know what else to provide to get this fixed. In the meantime all I can use is regular-ol spotlight. smile:cry:

I honestly suspect some update since version 6 is causing it but there's nothing concrete here.

Again, let me know if there are some other minor things I can do to see if we can get this working again because without it, it really really sucks.

I'll ask the devs to look into this once again, maybe they'll come up with more ideas.
