So, instead opening a new topic about schools in Pattaya I used the search function in the top right corner and only search in the Pattaya forum.

No mater what I type: international schools in Pattaya, schools in Pattaya, I am ending up getting zero results??

Anybody?

The forum search function isn't very smart. By default it will look for threads containing all the terms in your search, in this case less is better.

Searching just for "international schools" or "schools" and limiting it to the Pattaya forum should give better results.

If you click the little gearwheel to the right of the search box there's an advanced search which is marginally more effective.

Just use this as a search term in google search

site:thaivisa.com/forum "International School Pattaya"

Agreed. I use Google advanced search a lot. Just be sure not to use quotation marks for your search term.
