 * I’m not sure why, but my search function is not working at all, and is going 
   to a page that says “This page cannot be found”.
 * Can someone check it out for me? The site is: [http://www.careermakersblog.com/wordpress](http://www.careermakersblog.com/wordpress)
 * Thank you in advance, I really appreciate your help.

 * No I haven’t, but would I risk losing information if I did that?
 * Green tea sounds very good right now! Too bad I don’t have any in my cupboards.
   I think I’ll go make some Earl Grey. 🙂

 * Haha, I don’t know about your plugins, but I actually have the opposite problem
   in plugin develop (data is stubborn and hard to delete).
 * Try disabling your plugins and see if this search works.
 * Hope this is a good start. 🙂
