Want your posts to show up in the PieFed search? Check this setting in your profile

Please go to https://piefed.social/user/settings and tick the checkbox "My posts appear in search results". When that is unticked your posts won't appear when people use the search at https://piefed.social/search

For a long time having it unticked was the default setting and it's meant that the search results are often missing posts that people expect to be there. It'll be ticked by default from now on.

  • Good to know; thank you!

    That said, our PF posts and content don't seem to be getting much FV traction the last 1.5wks or so. Or maybe it's just me, I don't know.

    But also:
    Is there actually a way to search the FV that includes PieFed content? Because so far it all seems to be Lemmy-oriented, you know?

    • 95% of the people here are using Lemmy, so we're a drop in the bucket :)

      • And frankly... there are also true upsides to that, mais non?

        (sorry Rimu, I'm trying like hell to learn this language (French) and I'm just inserting things fluffing everywhere, for no good reason. 😅

        Cheers, mate. <3

  • Is there any special configuration required to enable search on the instance itself?

    Search has not been functioning on my own instance for quite some time.

    • Please wait another week or two until v1.2 is available - there is a fix for the search in that release. :)
