When searching through the forums & wiki, I've noticed several things that make it easier to find what I'm looking for....
FORUM: ~ This ones's a no "brainer" here.
Once you're in the sub forum, don't forget about using the "Search Thread" search to only find search results in that sub-forum. ~I tend to "gravitate" to the search field that is visible all the time, which returns results from all forums.....
WIKI: ~ This trick/tip I find really helpful! (Due to inconsistencies in the way the same items are sometimes referenced in different places!)
When using the reference section to look for a function using "ALL FUNCTIONS" sections etc....
