   you can sort by "replies" and find questions that were never answered ...or
   Questions with many replies/comments

   So...for instance if you know the category...and about when the Question was first created
   you can Sort by "created" date

   You can also see which comments "you" have read

   I don't know if there is a code that brings up and sorts ALL Questions

   The GBA "search feature" is very quirky/almost useless
   I have found a workaround using google search

   I was looking for a blog where I knew the subject and 2 people who commented

   In the Google Search Window I entered:
   "Green Building Advisor" "Air Barrier" "Lucas Durand" "Michael Blasnik"

   and there it was at/near the top of the Google List

   John,
   That's pretty cool.

   Did you use an html tag in the body of your post that references the different categories?
   If so what tag is it?

   John,
   We're very aware of the limitations of the GBA Search box. We're working to improve it and eliminate all the bugs.

   My own method is similar to yours -- use Google:
   "Words I want to search for" +greenbuildingadvisor

   That works better than the GBA search box, unfortunately -- at least for the time being.

   Lucas, I was lazy ... I just pasted the raw code
   see attached snipit

   not sure why it works for some categories and not others like passivhaus

   This link is handy if you want to see if new comments (unread by you) have been added to one of Martin's Blogs

   John,
   How are you able to find GBA pages that I didn't even know existed?

   Here's a question: how is the page you linked to any different from the one you reach when you click the "Musings of an Energy Nerd" link on the "Most Recent Blogs" page? In other words, this page:
   https://www.greenbuildingadvisor.com/blogs/dept/musings

    Martin, look below each article....
    If there are (new to you) unread comments ...
    it will look like this(see attachment)
    and if you click it will take you to the most recent page

    John,
    Interesting. (I didn't see that feature because there are no "new to me" comments.) Thanks for sharing your discovery.
