When I search on 2 words the search engine give me posts and threads where either word appear. How do I get the posts/threads where both words appear ? Usually you use something like AND or "&" but I don't think these worked. Any ideas ? Thanks JK.

Eh, using AND seems to work for me. I searched for stuff AND things and it gave me posts with both the word stuff and the word thing. It doesn't seem to bring back posts with only one of the words.

Edit: actually you don't even have to capitalise the word and for it to work.
