Cruise Critic Forums app

[styles27]

I know my memory isn’t what it used to be but I’m pretty sure I used to have a cruise critic app on my phone. 
I can’t find it in the Apple store 

Is it still in existence?

 

I tried to search for this topic but I rarely have luck with the search feature on here.

BTW, there are two Search features. The one for the Cruse Critic website is the large rectangle box with the large blue magnifying glass upper right of the page under the top blue line.

 

Then for the message boards there is the smaller rectangle Search bubble with a small black magnifying glass under the Notifications bell and your User Name in the second blue line.

 

 

It can make a difference on how you use Search and what you see depending on the type of device you are using such as desktop, laptop, tablet, iPhone, etc. I have desktop & laptop so I cannot help you with other devices.

 

Go to the forum where you need to use the Search feature. In the small Search bubble type in your search word or words. Click This Forum in the drop-down that will appear. But first, please note there are times when you need to enter words surrounded by quotation marks - like, "Miami hotels" - you will get different results than if you entered just the two words. This is because quotation marks are used for phrase searching. That way your results will be just posts or titles containing the phrase and not ALL the posts in that forum containing the word Miami AND all the posts containing the word hotels.

 

 

Then click the magnifying glass. When the list appears, I find it best to change the SORT BY feature to Date from Relevancy so the newest will be at the top of the list of threads or posts containing your search word or words.

 

 

Also, I know you know what you are looking for... but there may be times when you need to think in the ways someone else may have posted the information. Then use a word or words with the phrase searching quote marks mentioned above and you might have better luck. 🍀

 

I hope 🤞 this information will help you in the future to use the Search feature and obtain the information you seek!

Thank you so much Kat! I never noticed that second search bar.
You’d think after being a member since 2009 I would have 🙈
