Google+ Tip: Hack to Search Communities in the New Google+

The new Google+ does not yet have all of the features of the classic Google+. One which has frustrated many people is the lack of the ability to perform searches within communities. The following is a quick-and-dirty way to perform community searches from the new Google+. It isn't pretty, but it works. 

While you are in the community you want to search, add "/s/" (without the quotation marks, of course) to the URL where is a single word or multiple words delimited by "%20", and then hit Enter. For example, adding "/s/apple%20orange" searches a community for all posts with "apple" and "orange" in them. The full URL if you wanted to perform that search in the Google+ Help community then would be https://plus.google.com/communities/115758385206378551362/s/apple%20orange.

Performing a search that way takes you into the classic Google+ Search page, but hitting the browser's back key returns you to the new Google+.
