    Would it be possible to have the FAQ section of the website included in forum Search results?
    I'm referring to this FAQ... https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/
    And not the forum one.

    Maybe the most relevant FAQ topic could be given the top position if one exists as these topics are far more useful to new users like me than wading through several long posts.

    Just an idea to help improve the forum for new users. :)

    When I want to find something on XSimulator I actually use Google and specify the site, e.g.: "6dof site:xsimulator.net"
    This brings up also the results from the FAQ section.
