Hey,

Noticed how if you type in "Bella Goth" into the Search bar and it takes you to a search page? Well it's because Wikia decided to once again ignore their community and improved broken the search system without any warning, leaving people with a mere announcement.

Well this can now be fixed via changing your preferences. Just go to the tab saying, "Under the Hood", tick "Enable Go-Search", save the page and then when you type in an exact term for a page name, you should be taken directly to the page.

As far as I'm aware, Wikia's changes never affected Monobook users.
