Forum:Known Shared Help Search bug is very bad!

The known bug that Shared Help can't be searched from the local wiki ruins Shared Help and makes it very confusing. http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Shared_Help_-_new_feature%21#Known_issues So a user will go to the wiki's Help:Main_Page, see a search box right in the middle of the page that they're told to use...and it doesn't work!!! --Jason C.K. 23:13, 20 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Good point - I have tweaked that page to make that current restriction clearer. 20:38, 22 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Still horribly confusing. It says in big letters "Search Wikia Help".  Tiny letters say "only searches local help pages".  Do newbies even have a clue what that means, only searches local?  Top of page...filled with great help topics.  The search right below...searches none of them.  Terribly confusing.  What about just a link that says "click here to search help topics" and make that go to a user friendly help.wikia search page?  On my wiki I'm doing my best to completely hide & bury the local Help:Main_Page.

 * Newbies dont even know what reds links are for so... — TulipVorlax 12:35, 23 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Exactly. So the people most in need of help & answers are going to be thwarted by a very strangely non-functional search.

 * We're working on making shared help searchable on individual wikis, which should fix this. 16:37, 29 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Ok. If that's going to take a while, I'm still in favor of, in the meantime, temporarily changing that help page so there's no search on the page, just a link that says "click here to search help topics" and make that go to a user friendly help.wikia search page. Or any fix to take the confusion off that page --Jason C.K. 20:43, 29 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Fair points - I'll edit the main page. 16:28, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
