I usually do my searches on "thread title only".

How do I do a "thread title only" search for TWO words in the same title?

For example, I am trying to find threads about how to buy lens caps. I want to search for LENS + CAPS at the same time.

I have tried different ways and none had worked:

> lens caps
> lens + caps
> lens & caps
> "lens caps"

Whats the correct string to search for both words at the same time in the title?

Thanks in advance!

If you search for "lens caps", you should only get threads with both of those words in their titles to show up. When I ran the search, I got 9 results total. Is that what you're seeing too?

Right on!

Dunno what happened, but somehow I screwed up.

Thanks though!
