I have no idea if this is possible or not. I know how to search for words in a post, but then I get hundreds of results I don't want since many of these posts could reference something that's not on subject. If there's a thread on this, this thread here kinda proves my pickle. So is it possible?

Unfortunately I think that it is not possible to search just the titles of the posts, or threads. That is something that I noticed long ago.
You can search for words in the title and the body of the post, or you can search for words in the body only, but you cannot search for words in the title only.
I do not know if this is a limitation of phpBB, the forum software, or if the admins here configured it that way.
If it is in the software then nothing can be done about it. If it is in the configuration then I would like to request that it be changed.

I'm positive something can be done by it. Iv'e been on a couple forums with a programming language and setup very similar to this. I was able to search by title, so it should be possible for ANN. I'd be surprised if it wasn't/

Hi Brook-Gomamon, welcome to ANN.
Unfortunately this version of phpbb does not support searching titles only. It's been an annoyance for a long, long time.

Hm, that's new. Alright. It as no big deal, really. Just wanted to find a thread about the skin feedback. Only thing I wanted to comment on was how we have a couple of Funimation skins mentioning they have over 9,000 episodes... and neither of them are Dragon Ball Z. That, and I was wondering about limitations on skin creating.

Regarding forum title search (since the thread it locked), it can be done (to a degree) using Google advanced search commands e.g.
Code: | site:animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2 intitle:[search term] |
