I hope this isn't a dumb question but I'm really stuck. It's a two-parter....
(a) When I use the SEARCH button to search Places, Events, etc. I can find what I want but then I can't figure out how to get to the place, event, etc. e.g. I do a search for `free furniture' and in the search results I find a place called FREEBIE WAREHOUSE. I can see the photo and description of the place. Now how do I Teleport to it? I can't find anything clickable in the seach results window; and I get "Not Found" when I search for it in MAP. I am so frustrated.
(b) When I do a First Land search in Land Sales, if some day something shows up in the search result(s), will there be a Teleport button right beside the First Land listing(s)? Or will I have to search in MAP using the place name of the First Land, and then Teleport?

Scroll down and you'll see the tp button. Each store or place has a short discription, below that is the button.
For b I have no idea... Mandy C

From: Mandy Carbenell Scroll down and you'll see the tp button. Each store or place has a short discription, below that is the button. Mandy, thanks for your input. Unfortunately I am still in the dark. My problem is that I definitely cannot locate any Teleport button below the description. Following my original example, I see the picture of FREEBIE WAREHOUSE on the right hand side of the page. Below the picture it says Free Furniture (in white). Below that in an section enclosed in a yellow outline there's the description, "270+ Free Home furniture items...." On the right side of the description area there's an up/down arrow, presumably for scrolling down through the description. When I scroll down I just reach the end of the description and nothing else. Below the description area there's nothing except two lines of buttons: HISTORY_______________________________ SAY, SHOUT, GESTURES IM, CHAT, FRIENDS, FLY, SNAPSHOT, SEARCH, BUILD, MINI-MP, MAP, INVENTORY

Problem solved! But I had to engage the live-in-game help of George Linden to solve it.
George Linden told me that my TP button must be off the page/hidden and that I either needed to somehow grasp the bottom of my window and pull it up, or go into File-> Preferences-> Graphics to change my IU size. I did the latter and voila--the hidden TP appeared!
In Graphics I slid the UI size slider to the left. My UI size was at .10000 I slid it left over to .925 and now I can clearly see the TP button. It makes everything look smaller, but that doesn't bother me as I can change the setting back each time I'm done searching/teleporting.
.950 UI size is adequate but it gives me barely enough of the TP button to click on. If I'm searching for First Land things will happen fast when land appears so I want to have that TP button in plain sight so I'll stick with .925

Forager, I had the very same problem and was totally frustrated. Thanks for figuring it all out and posting it.
