I found these by clicking on Advanced Search and entering First/firstly in the search box.
 
Sorry but I didn't find anything. Could you explain it for me, please?
 
Hello, samya.barham.:-D
Can you see/find "Advanced Search" on this page?
 
I'm not sure what happened there, but if you click on the word "here" in Rover's post, it does indeed take you to a page that says "Sorry, no matches". To test out the system, I have now tried to do the same thing. Try to click HERE and see what happens.

EDIT: OK, I have tested that link and it takes me to the results page for "first/firstly" from the Advanced Search function.

I'm afraid your link doesn't work for me, either.:cry:
 
That is very strange. I just checked it and it worked again for me. If the links aren't working then the OP needs to:

1. Click on the words "Advanced Search" at the top right-hand corner of this page.
2. Enter "first/firstly" in the Keyword(s) box and click Search Now.
 
It doesn't work for me either, ems.
 
It doesn't work any more for me. How strange. It worked for at least 15 minutes for me after I posted it, yet not now. That's an odd glitch.
 
It worked for me just now.

Things will improve when we get Google Custom Search back.
 
It's been ages since I last saw 'Google Custom (S)earch". :-D
 
Admin are aware and it's being worked on.
 
Thanks for your effort but till now I didn't get anything about my question.
 
Try clicking here.
