[Question] Searching Through your post history

*sdp* · 08-07-2020, 07:04 PM

Any easy way to search through old posts? I want to go through some of my older posts but the search maxes out at the last 500 posts, any other way of being able to see your older posts besides manually searching thread by thread?

Perhaps a newer bulletin board software allows you to? or is there a way to do it here?

You can also type in your username in the search feature and keywords (like character names, seasons, episodes, anything really) and dig up old posts from 2004. Pretty funny I can read posts I made when I was like 18 years old, I don't think I've changed at all since like 2004.

Yes, CyberCubed is right. Go Advanced Search, and change the following settings:

Search by User Name: sdp
Sort Results by: Last Posting Date in Ascending Order
Show Results as: Posts

Leave everything else as default, and you should get your first 500 posts.
