Search ignoring words

Post by PWtuba »

I don't quite understand the purpose of the search box ignoring common words. I was looking for a thread on how to read/transpose brass band music. I searched the words "brass band music." What I got was a notice that said, "The following words were ignored because they are too common: brass, band, music." So I got no results. I don't see how this is helpful at all. Is it possible to change that feature? Is there another way to search, so that words won't get screened out?

One option would be to use Google. Enter this in your search box:
brass band music site:.chisham.com

Not perfect or quite as targeted, but maybe a jumping point. Plus, you will find stuff from the current and the old Tubenet this way!

Try putting the phrase in quotation marks, such as "brass band music"
