I have found I get much more results by doing this in Google
site:laracasts.com search term
The site search is definitely not as powerful as a Google search.

Laracasts search buggy
Anyone else notice the search on the discussion board doesn't always pull up all the discussions?
Example: I am looking for discussions on Laravel Vapor so I search "Vapor". When I do there is only some older posts, non of which are about the correct vapor. I get the keyword Vapor is what triggered those results.
If I search Google for "Laracasts Vapor" there are 2 discussions that are about the Vapor I was looking for: https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/vapor-taylor-otwell-presentation?page=1 and https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/site-improvements/laravel-vapor-queue-worker-serverless.
Both of these discussion also have "Vapor" in their title so why didn't they show up in my search on Laracasts??

I understand that, but if Vapor is in all the titles you think if Laracasts found some, it would find them all?

This is a known issue for a long time already: https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/site-improvements/search-not-giving-correct-result

@click. Oh I see. That was a while ago too, I would think the site update would have made some search updates as well but I guess not. Looks like I will just continue to use Google.
