I am having problems with the forum Search function - the one in the top right corner, not the Google Search box (which I try to avoid).
When I input a search item eg dentist, instead of doing a search, I get the same message as tamada in the above post.
And when I manage to get in to the search, I sometimes get the same message when trying to progress to the next page ie in page 4, and click on page 5.
I just tried to recreate the issue you had Jackspratt and managed to get that error after a couple of tries.
One thing I did observe (in case this helps the technical admin) is that the timeout message was about correct for the time it took for me to not get the message. The first one said 26 seconds, then I tried again and it was like 14 seconds then the next time it was 2 seconds then presto it worked.
Just guessing here but it sounds like it may be a backend database server being busy or perhaps underpowered or possibly just needing a data scrubbing. I'm sure there are a few phpBB pros out there that may be able to lend more info.
BTW: I'm using W11Pro on an Intel machine with Chrome at the moment.
