Once you are at the front page of the forwards, you can enter - by date - and "search by listing #, genre, submitter's name, etc.".

I hope that helps.

I don't see that search function on the forwards blog. What am I missing? Thanks.

I'm also not seeing what Johnny is describing. I am able to do a search in the address bar using question mark syntax like this:

https://blog.taxi.com/forward/?s=dramedy

I think if there are spaces in the search term you need quotes like this:

https://blog.taxi.com/forward/?s="modern pop"

Once I do a search like that, a search box does show up on the right, but I find the address bar searching gives better results.

That being said, even the address bar searching seems imperfect. For instance, the "dramedy" search brings up forwards for 4/15/22, but I don't find any dramedy when I go to the forwards for that date.

Not a big deal but I hope one day in the future with some website updates they change the way the forwards blog is organized. It would be more user friendly if it was by listing number as opposed to date. But I totally get, as a software engineer, everything is easy to the folks who don't have to do it.

Maybe this will help?

You can search the forwards area by listing code, genre, artist, song title, etc.

I hope it helps. Play it at 2x speed if you need too. I'm not from the Big City folks.

Thanks. That is helpful. But the problem for me is you have to expand on a date by date basis first. I would love it if it was organized by listing numbers instead of dates. And what are the dates? They are not the listing due dates, they are the date the forward was decided as far as I can tell.

I really appreciate Taxi providing the info. Just suggesting a future improvement. Not at all a big deal. Thanks again!
