Never able to find anything with the search function. On Bill Myers' forum, if I do a search for a post or something in the forum, I get results for articles but not something I knew I saw but can't find.
David Frey killed his forum when he went to Membergate. It wasn't the most active place to begin with, but weeks go by now with nothing there.
I guess a Membergate site hasn't stopped me from joining or going there if I wanted the info.
As a site owner, there would have to be very compelling reasons to invest in the cost.
Hope this answers your questions. If i can add anything else, let me know.

PS. I look forward to seeing your project.

Gordon
