  I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong, but the “search” function doesn’t find anything on my blog. Is there something I’m supposed to enable buried somewhere in the settings?

  Just did what I should have done (read the forum) and found the answer, sort of. The search function only works for pages, not posts, right?

  No, it searches posts (or should do), not pages. I searched for the word ‘sedna’ and it didn’t return anything, even though it’s on your Readers’ Comments page. Which page do you have set as your main blog page?

  Pages “sit outside” of the blogging structure so I believe defrostindoors is correct “it searches posts (or should do), not pages.”

  Agreed. The search function only search the Posts within your site. The Pages sit seperate.
