You should try a different approach.
MyBB search.

Doing "www.domain.com" is not much use unless you want a popularity search (as stated). That will show you which sites link to yours, but only if they use www.domain.com as the textual link. It won't show sites that use <a href="www.domain.com">a great site</a>. You need a slightly different search query for that.

Using "site:domain.com" gets the total amount of pages indexed.
Using "site:adminstop.net" only gave me 20 pages indexed, none of them showthread.php. However, I searched zaher's site and got 372, most of them showthread.php. You need a bit more time before google will index you it seems (GoogleBot on the forums as I was looking at yours ).

Also, the Googlebot searches your site throught the homepage links (unless you have google sitemaps), so if your forum is not listed as a url on your homepage, it won't get indexed.

o.o

I can assure you that is rubbish.

Where did you read it?

What Chris said.

I just did a google site: search here and apparently everything is being indexed, from login to calendar to *gasp* posts. Including the showthread ones.

Of course, my main site which links to it is has a page rank of 6. (The forum, however, has a page rank of 1.) And I put my forum in a subdirectory to avoid the whole www. hassle.

Someone came up with the idea that Google doesn't index any dynamic PHP pages.

Well, they may not have in the past but I know that they certainly do now.
