Improvement of the search in the forum

For now: I think that Brave uses a forum software that is not from Brave itself. So I don’t know if my suggestion is feasible.

It would be great if you could use the search function like this:
crash on my mobile phone [USERNAME]

Here it would be great, if you only get the results, which also come from this user, or which are at the top of the search results.

Currently you get 0 hits if you enter the username.

Let me give you an example.
Without username:
https://community.brave.com/search?q=(recommendation)%20free%20vpn

With username:
https://community.brave.com/search?q=(recommendation)%20free%20vpn%20mediabird

Last: It is very seldom the case that the article/theme you are looking for is at the top, as in the 1st link. I have only looked here for the quick one for an example.

Edit:
I haven’t made myself clear enough. :man_facepalming: It’s mostly about the fact that you can’t use the username as a search term. The constellation of the order in the search terms is of secondary importance.

Hi @MediaBird,
Thanks for the feedback.

Yes. Brave use Discourse for the community forum.

You can. But you need to use @username for the search term.
