HINT: use "f=xx" to find the correct Forum

I was looking for examples of using ADC0831 with a Propeller without success until I noticed the propeller forum always had a f=25 in the page link. Sure enough searching for "f=25 ADC0831" listed the example I was looking for as the first choice. It didn't show up at all in the "Propeller ADC0831" search. Perhaps "Choose a Forum" could be added to the Advanced search?

Non inclusive list:
f=5 Basic Stamp
f=6 Stamps in Class
f=7 SX
f=8 Javelin
f=10 Robotics
f=13 Forum Support (this forum)
f=15 Sandbox
f=21 Complete Projects
f=25 Propeller

The search engine will usually ignore the forum designator when crawling the site pages. The designator is cataloged if it appears within the text of a page. Therefore, the results should actually be more complete without the forum designator.
