How to search in this forum more effectively.
« em: Junho 11, 2022, 12:24:31 pm »
There are specific ways to improve the search on this forum, to get a more concrete result and avoid wasting time searching the search results.
Specifically, we recommend that you search within each section to obtain results in that section only.
For example, if you are looking for a service manual for an LG TV, you can go directly to the service manuals section of the LG brand and at the top there is a search bar that, if used within a section, will only show results from that section.
This helps because if you want a service manual and do the general search of the forum writing the model of the tv, you will also get results of resolved malfunctions, firmware, software or any other topic that contains that model. But if you search within the right section, you only get results that match the contents of that section.

Another tip I recommend is to use a reduced number of search characters, for example if you are looking for something related to the LG 32LD320-ZA TV, search for 32ld320 because that way it covers more results, or if you are looking for service manuals, search for LD320 so that in case it doesn't exist with the mentioned reference, there is another similar one that can serve.

Another important tip is to be careful not to use the search at the top within a topic if what you are looking for is not in that topic. This is because the search bar that appears in the header of the pages will only search in that section.

I hope everyone understands how search works because it helps a lot to find what we are looking for more efficiently.
