I did a search query with the term “blind” because I wanted to see examples of the {Blind} being used
In the search results, “blind” isn’t being highlighted
I could’ve sworn that search results were highlighted in autohotkey forums
Also, the result doesn’t show the location of the search term

Am I incorrect?
If this isn’t the case, is this a feature that might be added to the forum in the future?
I think I’ve seen other phpbb forums do this

Thanks

Terms to be highlighted are simply added in the address bar, so your topic with "blind" highlighted would look like this.
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=51186&highlight=blind <--You can change this to any terms you like.

I see
I still think it would be better if we could have the option of seeing the highlighted words in the results page instead of having to open one of the results

URL of first page of results:
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/search.php?mode=results

The following URL...
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/search.php?mode=results
is given for anything search term you use

It should go to this instead:
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/search.php?search_id=1142144949&start=0

I can get a unique URL when I go to page 2:
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/search.php?search_id=1142144949&start=15

Then, if I go back to page 1, I'll get a URL that has a unique "search_id"
Now, I can bookmark the result
You can't bookmark this:
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/search.php?mode=results

Also, adding the &highlight=blind to this first page URL doesn't do anything, even if I have a unique URL:
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/search.php?search_id=1142144949&start=0

http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/search.php?search_id=1142144949&start=0&highlight=blind

Thanks

To my knowledge, searches cannot be saved or bookmarked. The search ID is simply a random number that is generated for a short period of time to cache the results.
