this would actually be a great feature to see in the future. I know of several questions people have, and I redirect them to old closed ones all the time.

ashleyisakitty · Answer

Download the chrome extension to have fully accessible search function.

e.mccormick · Answer

On Google, you can add site:doamin.nam to search a particular domain. Like this search: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Aopenstudy.com+site+search which shows how many times people have asked for a site search. hehehe.

@UsArmy3947, is it appropriate to ask for a certain feature to be created in OS?

e.mccormick · Answer

@SolomonZelman Yes.  That is what the feedback forum is for.  It lets them know what the community is concerned about.  

The problem is modifying the code base to support certain things.  Their primary focus has been on stability, speed, and scalability.  New features are added less often.  The older users have talked about how many new features have been added over time, but right now development has shifted to making it work better rather than other things.

solomonzelman · Answer

@e.mccormick, thank you for explaining!

anonymous · Answer

You should contact OpenStudy for that or if you are looking in a minor subject, try looking through some of the closed questions

thomaster · Answer

Yea 1 trick, like e.mccormick said: just add $\large\sf\underline{\ site:openstudy.com\ }$ after your search query and google will only show results from openstudy.
