Actually on Tiki forums, https://tiki.org/forums, there is a "simple" search field on the main page.
Initiating a search open https://tiki.org/tiki-searchindex.php (out of forums area) I can see 1289 pages of results and it look like forum posts (I didn't;t check all pages 😉 ). The first page of results displayed posts from the mailing list archive (forum26).
You can then use facets to try to narrow search results.
But the filters were though for a general use (Object Type, Language, Federated Search, Category Tree, Categories, Letter, First word) and are bad for searching posts in forum... I don't see a case I would use any of them.?With 1289 pages of results that just awful.
If you go in a forum like : https://tiki.org/forum26
You have also a "simple" search field. Again you are redirected to https://tiki.org/tiki-searchindex.php but then it displays any objects found (not only posts). This is bad too. If I'm in a section or an area like a forum and initiate a search I should see results from this area.
Again filters are not relevant.
If I go in a thread then I don't have any search tools but seems ok to me.
