Even searching for 'bike' returned no results! But it seems to be OK again now.</p> <p>The bit that lets you select a username to refine the search is handy, but it only seems to work on some browsers. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=29#post-235952 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 20:20:11 +0000 LivM 235952@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>My preference would be to have the Themes off at the side, or below the Topics.
