Searching my posts

Post by OLDE CUTLER »

My question concerns finding a post that I made in a certain thread. I know I posted in this thread because the thread appears when I click "Your Posts". But I cant remember what I posted or what knife it was about. I tried searching by my user name, but get no results. Is there a way to do this? I am doing the search just in the related thread.

This works for me. Click on the pull down list arrow next to your user name above. Click Profile. Then click Search User'r Posts.

When you get to that point, you can use the “search these posts” box to input a keyword to search for. If you can recall anything about the subject of the thread in which you posted, searching a keyword can help filter your posts to a more manageable group.

That gets me 121 pages of results to sift through. Not what I was hoping for. I was looking to see what knife I had pictured in a particular thread a year or two ago. I was hoping I could search my user name in that one thread and get 1 hit.
