Hi Heather,

I think there is a bit of a disconnect here because we currently do allow discussions to be searched. You can see the search area on the right rail of most discussions pages that will search in context of what you are viewing (e.g. one discussion, all discussions, etc.). What I believe you may be referring to is when someone searches using the enterprise search at the top of the site - we do not show discussions results. This is a design decision made because the search results were completely dominated with discussion posts, making it difficult to find users, groups, documents and other useful content. Is this in line with your understanding?

Thanks,Kevin

Sorry Cameron, you're right that this one seemed to slip through the cracks. I've confirmed it was not released as planned so I apologize for the mis-information. Let me circle with our dev team to figure out what happened and post again, I will update you here shortly. To answer your second question we do not share our roadmap publicly because it is fairly fluid and we would rather not display what's in the works until we are comfortable committing to a release date. We do, however, attempt to update specific client requests via this blog. You can review the categories to determine which requests are in which status. Thanks and I'll update you soon...Kevin

Hi Virginia, essentially many browser (IE and FFX specifically) have settings that allow users to choose whether links open in new windows vs. new tabs, etc. You are right that users can manually choose this regardless of any settings by right click -> new tab/window. I can't specifically comment on whether browser settings will apply to all sites someone may browse because many sites have hard coded links to target new windows vs. not, for example. We've kept this request on file only because there is a readily available workaround for what you desire, but I will make sure to review your request with our product management team for inclusion in upcoming updates. Hope this response is helpful and happy holidays!
