Just noticed recently that the search seems to lack the a feature that was present a while ago. I used to be able to search threads containg 2 search words. Now it only seems to find results for each word. How do I do a search for posts containing 2 search words?

No idea how you were doing it before but have you tried just putting an AND in between the two words?

Boolean search (the type you're referring to) is disabled for all but moderators and subscribers at the moment. It will be re-enabled when we have the infrastructure to support it under peak load.
