"Search" help

LarryLegend · Feb 14, 2008

When I do a search on a poster by "threads started" "nba forum", whenever I get the results, all I get are 4 pages worth of results, usually only about to the middle of January. How can I get further back threads without having to do mutiple searches.
(I went into "user Cp" and changed something to show one year worths of threads, but that didn't do anything)

it's going to go back and show 80 results, so you need to define the search with some keywords ( if possible).

On the advanced search page (http://www.therxforum.com/search.php), on the left hand side, it says "Find Posts from".

Click on where it says "Any date" and pick a year ago, or however far back you want to go.

Click on where it says "And newer" and change it to "And older".

Then do your search. It will only pull up results for the search that are at least a year old.

If you posted in the thread you are looking for, you can search your posts.

This is what I am trying to do.

I like to tail certain posters. But I do not like to do this blindly with those that do not post records.

So for example, if I wanted to find all of Railbirds college plays, I would select Railbird , threads started, coolege forum. And when I get the results, all I get is back to December. So to get the rest, I have to do another search, with 3 months ago, and older.
So is there a way, I can do one search and get all his (Railbird is just an example) plays with one search?

it will only go back 80 results, so I'll say NO.

Damn. That sucks.

But I swear it used to pump out more results than that back in the day.

I would think a mod could answer this or someone as I have seen posts that have been brought back from years ago. Would think that there is a way. Keep doing what you do in that Daily Tracker Forum as well Larry, much appreciated!

If you make the search obscure enough, you get old results:
