Click "Member List" under the "Community" tab (top middle). Then the "Member Search" is on the right side of the page.

In regards to searches, I noticed something was missing as an option from the previous board. Are you able to add the option to return results under advanced searches as previews of posts (I believe the first 10 words or so of a post were visible from the search screen)? I found it helped to look at the previews rather than clicking on each thread in the results page to see if the post was relevant to my search.

I'll take a look around and see if such an option is easily added. Currently, though, you can just hold your mouse over a search result to have it pop up with the first few lines of the first post.

I am so glad you asked for this. I use that feature a lot. It is a great way to find specific posts.
I am not sure if this is new, but I just found it in "Advanced Search" under the "Search Single Content Type" tab.
Thanks Steve for being so responsive to our requests!
