When beginning a search, by clicking the magnifying glass, the initial search is as you describe.


From there, near the top right corner (above), one has to click on "Advanced >>" (in blue ink, as a link).


One can input the same terms. But if you scroll down to the bottom of that page, you will see an option to search specific forums, "Search in Forum(s)".

The default is "Search All Open Forums". But if you click on that line, you will be given a list of all open forums:


Again, "Search All Open Forums" is the default. From there, one has to uncheck that and pick one or more other particular forums for greater specificity.
