How to search forums for old posts

[kuby]

How do you search for old posts that you made or started. Tried and only one shows up? Very frustrating.

Well first off have you tried looking at your "User Profile" "Activities" tab. By Default it only shows the last month but that can be changed by using the Filter button options. There is also an Advanced options for the filter. I am seeing a lot more than just 1 on your Activities tab.

Oh and why did you post your question here instead of Sire Feedback & Questions

I have tried the advanced options. Just keep messing with it I guess. Thanks

It looks like Aneurysm moved this to Site Feedback & Questions

To get to the advanced search, click the down arrow in the search box in the upper right area of your screen, then click on Advanced Search at the bottom of the search options

In the Advanced search enter your username in the member field, and hit search, if you only want to see the topics you started you can check the checkbox to the right of the Member field.

Just noticed that you can find your own posts in one place: select your username top right -> select My Profile -> select About -> scroll to the bottom and click the Find all posts under the Links

Good to know but it's limited to only 500 posts.

tsb, I realize that 500 is no where near enough for people like you, BC and I but more than enough for many of those here.

Also as I mentioned in the first reply to this thread look at your "User Profile" "Activities" tab. Set the time filter to All Time and use the Advanced under filter to select a date range. I tried setting the range to the first month I was a member and the posts were all there.

Same but short is to choose "my recent posts" which is right under "my profile".
