Visiting Earth on a Guest Pass

When I do an author search, everything in the grown-up forums comes up as Access Denied. I have access to those forums and can read anything there, but I can't search 'em.

Is that a characteristic of the search engine, or might it be something about my permissions?

If you have access to the MC forums your searches should list the threads there.

That's the trouble -- I do have access, and can pull up any individual poem in any of them... but still can't search.

You posted your question in the right forum, Ed. It's a bug, the result of the way we're handling the MC forums.

When we expanded the original Adult forum into MC, I wanted a "one ticket" approach to avoid a whole lot of administration work. Essentially, if you had been granted access to the original Adult forum, then you automatically had access to all the new MC forums. Unfortunately, I neglected to extend that functionality to Smart Search.

My oversight has been corrected and you should now see what you expect to see.

One other question then -- do you actually have a magic wand, or does it only seem that way to the uninitiated?

Ron doesn't need a magic wand. He IS magic.
