    Any way to see previous threads that you posted?

    I am wondering how I can find some of my older threads. Before the changes I could just go into the CP and check out my posts and threads, sine the change though it doesnt allow me to search any of my posts from before the changes were made. This goes for the actual search as well. Any ideas? I have a couple threads with questions I asked that can probably help me again and I would like to retrieve them.

    Thread moved to 'Forum Feedback', which is where questions about site usage etc belong

    The forum upgrade isn't fully finished yet, and it seems that the search indexes are one of the few things remaining.

    A temporary alternative to find your posts is to use a search engine like Google, and specify this site along with your username.

    If you click on your log on ID to the left of your first post there is an option to see your previous posts. I don't know how far along the index rebuild is but when I clicked on JoePage I got 14 pages of your previous posts. I saw 180 of mine.

    Yeah, the indexing needs fixing! I have looked at my posts since the upgrade and they are fine. However, my last post before that according the search function was some times in 2006.

    It's the same for my posts... From what I understand the indexing is still running, and based on what we've seen it seems that it has only reached 2006 so far.

    Sometimes being a popular site is a bad thing!
