When you click in the Search bar a dropdown appears to the left of it.  For some reason this dropdown defaults to "This Topic".  Change it to "All Content" and then do your search.

 

MODS -- can we get this default changed??

I think this is by design.  It automatically sets the focus to what you are currently viewing. ie if you are on the forum index it will search 'All Content'

 

I suppose it would be possible to change, I saw a discussion on another site about it. But I also think it works as intended so no reason to change it?

Are signature photo's no longer supported? 

Turned signatures back on today.  Yours looks great, but I edited it so it wasn't so HUGE.  Site rules are 200x700 maximum :thumbs:

I agree, the search functionality in the new software SUCKS.  Good news though, in the next update I have heard they will be adding external search support. Basically, we will be able to install and run software that is specifically designed to search better. I won't bore you with the details, but I'm hoping GM-Trucks.com's search functionality will be greatly improved in the coming months.

 

As a work around, I highly recommend using google to search the site.  It will always be better then anything we can build in native to the site.

 

For example, use the search string "site:gm-trucks.com Z71"

 

^^^^    This is the best way to search not only this site but most sites

This seems to be a feature that was ditched with the new software. I'm sure its something I could add in the future with a theme edit.

 

But, for the time being, did you know that the Home and End buttons on your keyboard do the same thing?

lol  when it comes to computers I'm triple left handed. :rolleyes:

Thanks!

 

so long

This is a browser feature that most websites are taking advantage of these days.  You can turn them on/off per site in your browser settings.

 

Let me know if this fixes your issue.

Don't know how to do that iam using Microsoft Edge.

I’m having problems with making a picture as my profile picture. I keep getting “network error”. Any suggestions? I am using Tapatalk. Any ideas I could try would be greatly appreciated!

      Trim level custom/pro

      By Another JR · Posted

      Are you going to take long trips in it?  If so, try out the seats in the various trims. For me the lower trim level seats were not comfortable.

      I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.   I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure.

      Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.

      Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact. That Chaucer was a real person is an undisputed fact." A real occurrence; an event. "had to prove the facts of the case." The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition • More at Wordnik   If you'd like to disagree call your Senator or Representative and let him know his departments are in error. But you and I? We are not doing this.
