If you view the page source, you’ll see that links on forum topics are marked as nofollow. This is a hint to search engines not to pass ranking value (and often not to index the linked content, although they sometimes still do).

Because of this, it’s usually better to search outside the PrestaShop forum if you’re looking for broader or more complete results.

AI tools can also be helpful, as they often surface relevant PrestaShop GitHub issues, which tend to contain much more useful technical detail.

You can do the same with regular Google or other search engines by explicitly including terms like:
PrestaShop GitHub issue or PrestaShop GitHub question.

Thanks for the explanation, much appreciated , but still a shame not to be able to make narrow searches here especially to find things that have probably already been answered and for which people who actually are keen on helping stop helping because they already have answered same topics numerous times, but is what it is

The forum search works as long as you have one search term. But if you have two or more it will seek for any of them - what is useless. In that case you are forced to use Google.
