UBB Searching (SuperDan?)

Okay, this is going to sound like I'm whining, but please take this as constructive commentary.

 

I was searching for LoneStar1's original post because, as I recall, someone asked him about the air intake piping and filter he was using and he provided some information that I needed.

 

Well, I couldn't find it. You have to get the member number - not the member name. But that wasn't too hard - I had to click around until I found a post that he replied to to find his number. Anyway, I first just tried the Profile->Recent Posts thing, but that only shows the 50 most recent posts. Then I tried doing a search with blank fields with his ID. But that only seems to return a limited number of results as well. I tried several keywords that seemed like they should work, but none did. Seems like it only looks back about 60 days.

 

I guess I'm wondering if any of these issues are subject to config changes with the software? For instance, it'd be key to specify a date range (since in this case, I know that he registered 3/01 and that's when the post occured).

 

Other issues, such as the email notification, aren't that important to me since I check this board everyday about once every hour or so (sad, but true tongue.gif ). But searching is pretty key - there's a whole lot of info tucked away in here that would help alot of people out.

 

Thanks. And thanks for providing such a great site.
