Some doco work. Changed main.bb and added a return link to all .bb files and began planning new entries for user orientated documentation.

+Advanced Directory Search
+=========================
+
+
+Advanced Directory Search is enabled in "Expert Mode" from your Settings => Additional features page.
+
+On the Directory page an option named "Advanced" will apear in the "Find Channels" widget (typically in the sidebar). Clicking "Advanced" will open another search box for entering advanced search requests.
+
+Advanced requests include
+
+* name=xxx 
+[Channel name contains xxx]
+
+* address=xxx
+[Channel address (webbie) contains xxx]
+
+* locale=xxx
+[Locale (typically 'city') contains xxx]
+
+* region=xxx
+[Region (state/territory) contains xxx]
+
+* postcode=xxx
+[Postcode or zip code contains xxx]
+
+* country=xxx
+[Country name contains xxx]
+
+* gender=xxx
+[Gender contains xxx]
+
+* marital=xxx
+[Marital status contains xxx]
+
+* sexual=xxx
+[Sexual preference contains xxx]
+
+* keywords=xxx
+[Keywords contain xxx]
+
+There are many reasons why a match may not return what you're looking for, as many channels do not provide detailed information in their default (public) profile, and many of these fields allow free-text input in several languages - and this may be difficult to match precisely. For instance you may have better results finding somebody in the USA with 'country=u' (along with some odd channels from Deutschland and Bulgaria and Australia) because this could be represented in a profile as US, U.S.A, USA, United States, etc...
+
+Future revisions of this tool may try to smooth over some of these difficulties. 
+
+Requests may be joined together with 'and', 'or', and 'and not'. 
+
+Terms containing spaces must be quoted.
+
+Example:
+    
+    name="charlie brown" and country=canada and not gender=female
