Hello @
ijg3956,
The search box is located in the top right hand corner of every page. Clicking it gives you a simple search (with a few options, such as search entire board, search specific forum and search specific thread). Clicking "more" will give you even more options to narrow your search such as which member posted it, etc.
EDIT:
Hello @
ijg3956,
I was talking to @
DavidS early and he came up with a great idea on the problems you may be facing. I agree with David that this is the issue and would like you to confirm it.
The search box is located in the top-right of the page. However, for resolutions under 700px it will not display as it believes it is being viewed on a mobile device. You will need to increase your screen resolution to at least 1024 x 768.
It also may be possible you have a setting in your computer to make fonts easier to read. This would cause issues with how the site displays read and unread text.
Thanks.
