Talk:Finding WordPress Help

This page needs to be linked-to from other pages, besides the Lessons articles. Getting More Help and Using the Support Forums for example. Also, it would be ideal if info regarding searching was limited to one page, and that page was called tips on searching or something with "search" in the title. Finding WordPress Help is a general/broad title, and this page deals mostly with searching the internet, so why not roll this into the [[Getting More Help page, as a section on searching the internet?

Copyedit

Picked this up in the copyedit queue and gave it a going-over to remove confusing sentence constructions and other errors.

I've combined the "Searching Tips and Tricks" and "Searching the Net For WordPress Help" sections as suggested, as they were fundamentally part of the same topic. The original advice on searching by domain was a little out of date, as Google, Yahoo and Bing all now support use of the "site:" operator in search terms. As such, I've combined the separate advice for Google and Yahoo into general usage instructions for the "site:" operator. I've also removed some dead links from the last few sections and added an example of using Boolean operators in search terms.
